[RFC PATCH V2 16/22] x86/intel_rdt: Create debugfs files for pseudo-locking testing

[Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>]

There is no simple yes/no test to determine if pseudo-locking was
successful. In order to test pseudo-locking we expose a debugfs file for
each pseudo-locked region that will record the latency of reading the
pseudo-locked memory at a stride of 32 bytes (hardcoded). These numbers
will give us an idea of locking was successful or not since they will
reflect cache hits and cache misses (hardware prefetching is disabled
during the test).

The new debugfs file "measure_trigger" will, when the
pseudo_lock_mem_latency tracepoint is enabled, record the latency of
accessing each cache line twice.

Kernel tracepoints offer us histograms that is a simple way to visualize
the memory access latency and immediately see any cache misses. For
example, the hist trigger below before trigger of the measurement
will display the memory access latency and instances at each
latency:
echo 'hist:keys=latency' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/pseudo_lock/\
                           pseudo_lock_mem_latency/trigger
