Add a kernel command-line parameter to enable or disable the exposure of

This allows administrators to control PLZA visibility at boot time via the
rdt= option (e.g. rdt=plza or rdt=!plza).


Apologies for not being clear in previous review. This changelog has a
lot of repetition. Above two paragraphs are redundant, paragraph below is
sufficient by itself. One possible change would be to spell out PLZA in
the paragraph below. Spelling PLZA out may not be necessary since it is
spelled out in the patch self, so up to you.

No worries. It will be:

Add "plza" to the rdt= command-line parameter so PLZA (Privilege Level Zero Association) exposure to resctrl can be enabled or disabled at boot. PLZA is exposed by default when supported; rdt=!plza suppresses it.




Add "plza" to the rdt= command-line parameter so PLZA exposure to resctrl
can be enabled or disabled at boot. PLZA is exposed by default when
