On Intel SKUs that support Code Data Prioritization(CDP), intel_rdt
operates in 2 modes - legacy cache allocation mode/default or CDP mode.
When CDP is enabled, the number of available CLOSids is halved. Hence the
enabling is done when less than half the number of CLOSids available are
used. When CDP is enabled each CLOSid maps to a
data cache mask and an instruction cache mask. The enabling itself is done
by writing to the IA32_PQOS_CFG MSR and can dynamically be enabled or
disabled.
CDP is disabled when for each (dcache_cbm,icache_cbm) pair, the
dcache_cbm = icache_cbm.

I think most of this patch is not about CDP, but about moving from an
independently defined closmap to one defined as part of struct
clos_config. I suggest we combine part of this patch with patch 03/32
and work with struct clos_config right from the beginning.
Its moved to struct to track the number of closids used as the cdp mode can be
switched only when half the number of closids. it has other updates like
using the cctable as its not indexed by raw closid but depends on whether closid
is used for data or i cache
