Could you please add some context in support of this change?

I do not think "duplicated" is appropriate though. Functions
are not duplicated but instead made to be dedicated to
either control or monitoring domains, no?

I do not think that void pointers should be passed around. How about two
new functions dedicated to the different domain types with the void pointer
handling contained in a static function? For example,

static void *__rdt_find_domain(struct list_head *h, int id, struct list_head **pos)

struct rdt_mondomain *rdt_find_mondomain(struct rdt_resource *r, int id, struct list_head **pos)
struct rdt_domain *rdt_find_ctrldomain(struct rdt_resource *r, int id, struct list_head **pos)

rdt_find_mondomain() and rdt_find_ctrldomain() would be what callers use
while they can be wrappers of __rdt_find_domain().

Please ensure that reverse fir tree order is maintained in all these changes.
