x86/intel_rdt/mba_sc: Feedback loop to dynamically update mem bandwidth

mba_sc is a feedback loop where we periodically read MBM counters and
try to restrict the bandwidth below a max value so the below is always
true:

  "current bandwidth(cur_bw) < user specified bandwidth(user_bw)"

The frequency of these checks is currently 1s and we just tag along the
MBM overflow timer to do the updates. Doing it once in a second also
makes the calculation of bandwidth easy. The steps of increase or
decrease of bandwidth is the minimum granularity specified by the
hardware.

Although the MBA's goal is to restrict the bandwidth below a maximum,
there may be a need to even increase the bandwidth. Since MBA controls
the L2 external bandwidth where as MBM measures the L3 external
bandwidth, we may end up restricting some rdtgroups unnecessarily. This
may happen in the sequence where rdtgroup (set of jobs) had high
"L3 <-> memory traffic" in initial phases -> mba_sc kicks in and reduced
bandwidth percentage values -> but after some it has mostly "L2 <-> L3"
traffic. In this scenario mba_sc increases the bandwidth percentage when
there is lesser memory traffic.
