In mbm_cntr_assign mode, the hardware counter should be assigned to read
the MBM events.
Report "Unassigned" in case the user attempts to read the events without
assigning the counter.
Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@xxxxxxx>

v8: Used MBM_EVENT_ARRAY_INDEX to get the index for the MBM event.
Documentation update to make the text generic.
v7: Moved the documentation under "mon_data".
Updated the text little bit.
v6: Added more explaination in the resctrl.rst
Added checks to detect "Unassigned" before reading RMID.
v5: New patch.
