The second sentence ("These counters ...") is difficult to parse.

"The kernel must manage and track the number of available counters." ->
"The kernel must manage and track the available counters." ?

Last sentence seems to be duplicate of the first?

Needs __init?

Missing cleanup of earlier allocation on error path here. Even so, this does not
seem to integrate with existing dom_data_init() wrt ordering and locking. Could
this be more fitting when merged with dom_data_init() (after moving it)?

There is a mismatch wrt locking used in dom_data_exit() and mbm_cntrs_exit() that is
sure to cause confusion and difficulty in the MPAM transition.

The "number of" is not clear ... it seems to indicate tracking a count? How about
just "bitmap of free MBM counters"
