First, generalize resctrl selftest non-contiguous CAT check to not

parts and resctrl selftest such that the use of __cpuid_count() does
not lead into a build failure (happens at least on ARM).

The last patch might still require some work on which symbol the
conditional in kselftest.h is implemented. I could not find any
pre-existing one that could be used. Perhaps somebody who's more
familiar with the kselftest build system has a better suggestion on
which symbol the logic should be based at?

These changes look good to me. Can you send the RFC patch without the RFC tag
for me to pull in? I don't apply RFC patches.

Usama, does this fix the problem you are seeing?

Hi Reinette - do these look okay to you? Can you give me an ack if they do?

thanks,
