So I'm wondering: instead of having mba_wrmsr_intel() and
mba_wrmsr_amd() and adding those per-vendor initialization functions,
why don't you push down the vendor differentiation into mba_wrmsr()?

Then in that function you do

	if (vendor == X86_VENDOR_INTEL)
		__mba_wrmsr_intel();
	else if (vendor == X86_VENDOR_AMD)
		__mba_wrmsr_amd();

and so on and then you don't have to do any of that initialization dance
here and the struct rdt_resource assignment for the MBA will remain
nicely similar to the other ones...

Hmmm?
