[PATCH 11/22] selftests/resctrl: Add flush_buffer() to fill_buf

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Currently, flushing is only done after allocating and filling the
buffer and cannot be controlled by the test cases.

The new CAT test will want to control flushing within a test so
introduce flush_buffer() for that purpose.
