Hi Shuah,

Thank you for fixing it.

When resctrl is built on architectures without __cpuid_count()
support, build fails. resctrl uses __cpuid_count() defined in
kselftest.h.

Even though the problem is seen while building resctrl on aarch64,
this error can be seen on any platform that doesn't support CPUID.

CPUID is a x86/x86-64 feature and code paths with CPUID asm commands
will fail to build on all other architectures.

All others tests call __cpuid_count() do so from x86/x86_64 code paths
when _i386__ or __x86_64__ are defined. resctrl is an exception.

Fix the problem by defining __cpuid_count() only when __i386__ or
__x86_64__ are defined in kselftest.h and changing resctrl to call
__cpuid_count() only when __i386__ or __x86_64__ are defined.

Thank you for the review and finding the problem to begin with.
Much appreciated.

Will do.
