I do not find there to be a context nor problem description in the
changelog. Do you believe this changelog is appropriate for tip? Am I missing
something?

This change in the check is unexpected because at this point the event is still enforced to be
local MBM. This change is also undocumented so difficult to reason about.

(To also answer the question in https://lore.kernel.org/all/Zzvtj8n1_ukhnRWT@agluck-desk3/ )

One key point from previous patch is that there is a new "contract" that rgrp->mba_mbps_event
is valid if mba_sc is enabled. If that contract is respected with appropriate initialization
and change of rgrp->mba_mbps_event then I do not believe that the three checks below
nor the "is_mbm_enabled()" above in reader of rgrp->mba_mbps_event are necessary since the
access of rgrp->mba_mbps_event is within "contract".
Note that caller does the checking if mba_sc is enabled:
	if (is_mba_sc(NULL))
		update_mba_bw(prgrp, d);

Thus doing same check within update_mba_bw() should not be necessary. 

It does take a lot of digging to understand so it would really be helpful to document these types
of design decisions and reinforce them through the series.
