[PATCH v6 1/8] x86/resctrl: Add multiple tasks to the resctrl group at once

[Babu Moger <babu.moger@xxxxxxx>]

The resctrl task assignment for monitor or control group needs to be
done one at a time. For example:

  $mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
  $mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1
  $echo 123 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
  $echo 456 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
  $echo 789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks

This is not user-friendly when dealing with hundreds of tasks.

Support multiple task assignment in one command with tasks ids separated
by commas. For example:
  $echo 123,456,789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
