Merge tag 'x86_cache_for_v6.14_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 resource control updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Extend resctrl with the capability of total memory bandwidth
   monitoring, thus accomodating systems which support only total but
   not local memory bandwidth monitoring. Add the respective new mount
   options

 - The usual cleanups
