Hardware provides a set of counters when the ABMC feature is supported.
These counters are used for enabling the events in resctrl group when

Introduce num_cntrs_free_map bitmap to track available and free counters.

v4: Changed the name to num_cntrs where applicable.
Used bitmap apis.
Added more comments for the globals.
v3: Changed the bitmap name to assign_cntrs_free_map. Removed abmc
from the name.
v2: Changed the bitmap name to assignable_counter_free_map from
abmc_counter_free_map.

Why does variable have "num" in its name? That seems strange. How
about just "mon_cntrs_free_map

This comment puts in words what can be understood by just looking at the code.

what happens to the previously assigned counters?
