This feels a bit weird. Having rdt_resources_all[] be a "swiss cheese"
array full of holes where other architectures defined events that aren't
supported by x86.

But it does work, so it can go in like this. But someday I may revisit
some experimental patches I did a while back that:
1) Split the rdt_resource structure into separate "ctrl" and "mon"
pieces.
2) Replaced this array with a pair of lists, one each for enabled
ctrl and mon resources.
3) Changed the resource walkers to use list_for_each*() macros.
