The above highlights how the error checking is broken here and
leaving this code like this until the later fix arrives is confusing (to me).
Could you please squash "selftests/resctrl: Fix closing IMC fds on error" into this
patch?

Even so, I do not think that this addresses all the issues with error handling
surrounding these fds.
If I understand correctly these fds are currently (and remains to be after this
series) closed within get_mem_bw_imc(). In this series there seems to be
many occasions where open_perf_event() succeeds but later failures encountered
before get_mem_bw_imc() results in these fds not being cleaned up. What do you think of
having a perf_close_imc_mem_bw() to match with perf_open_imc_mem_bw() that
closes the fds and can be called from within get_mem_bw_imc() as well as
earlier if a failure is encountered between perf_open_imc_mem_bw()
and get_mem_bw_imc()?
