Creating a new sub monitoring group in the root /sys/fs/resctrl leads to
getting the "Unavailable" value for mbm_total_bytes and mbm_local_bytes
on the entire filesystem.
Steps to reproduce:
1. mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
2. cd /sys/fs/resctrl/
3. cat mon_data/mon_L3_00/mbm_total_bytes
23189832
4. Create sub monitor group:
mkdir mon_groups/test1
5. cat mon_data/mon_L3_00/mbm_total_bytes
Unavailable
When a new monitoring group is created, a new RMID is assigned to the
new group. But the RMID is not active yet. When the events are read on
the new RMID, it is expected to report the status as "Unavailable".
When the user reads the events on the default monitoring group with
multiple subgroups, the events on all subgroups are consolidated
together. Currently, if any of the RMID reads report as "Unavailable",
then everything will be reported as "Unavailable".
Fix the issue by discarding the "Unavailable" reads and reporting all
the successful RMID reads. This is not a problem on Intel systems as
Intel reports 0 on Inactive RMIDs.
