The recent commit 064855a69003 ("x86/resctrl: Fix default monitoring
groups reporting"), caused a RHEL8.5 build failure with an uninitialized
variable warning treated as an error. The commit removed the default case
snippet. The RHEL8.5 Makefile uses '-Werror=maybe-uninitialized' to force
uninitialized variable warnings to be treated as errors. This is also
reported by kernel test robot. The error from the RHEL8.5 build is below:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c: In function ‘__mon_event_count’:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c:261:12: error: ‘m’ may be used
uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  m->chunks += chunks;
            ^~

The upstream Makefile does not build using '-Werror=maybe-uninitialized'.
So, the problem is not seen there. Fix the problem by putting back the
default case snippet.
