This duplicates most of mon_event_config_read() from earlier patch. Would a
utility like "mon_event_config_index_get()" help here?

Why is it necessary to create a new CPU mask just to populate it
with all CPUs in another CPU mask? Why not just use the original CPU mask?

Please use reverse fir tree order.

How is this code protected from interference by other actions? Needs rdtgroup_mutex?
