Yes. I missed testing this scenario.
When new cpu comes online, it should inherit the abmc state which is set
already. it should not force it either way. In that case, it is not
required to reset the architectural state.

I need to make few changes to make it work properly.

We need to set abmc state to "enabled" during the init when abmc is
detected.  resctrl_late_init -> .. -> rdt_get_mon_l3_config

This only happens once during the init.

Then during the hotplug, just update the abmc state which is already set
duing the init. This should work fine.

Sure.

Sure.
