Re: [PATCH v1 03/11] arm_mpam: Set mpam_feat_msmon_mbwu_31counter when there are bandwidth counters

Hello Ben,

Although 31-bit counters are always exist, aren't they never used simultaneously with 44-bit or 63-bit counters?
If the `mpam_feat_msmon_mbwu_31counter` feature is set to always be enabled, could that potentially cause a bug?

Best regards,
Shaopeng TAN
