[RFC PATCH 17/20] x86/intel_rdt: Create character device exposing pseudo-locked region

From: Reinette Chatre
Date: Mon Nov 13 2017 - 19:43:35 EST


Once a pseudo-locked region has been created it needs to be made
available to user space to provide benefit there.

A character device supporting mmap() is created for each pseudo-locked
region. A user space application can now use mmap() system call to map
pseudo-locked region into its virtual address space.
