The selftest noncont_cat_run_test fails on AMD with the warnings. Reason
is, AMD supports non contiguous CBM masks but does not report it via
CPUID.
Update noncont_cat_run_test to check for the vendor when verifying CPUID.

Since AMD does not report this support via CPUID it does not seem
appropriate to use CPUID at all on AMD when doing the hardware check.
I think the above check makes it difficult to understand what is different
on AMD.
What if instead there is a new function, for example,
"static bool arch_supports_noncont_cat(const struct resctrl_test *test)"
that returns true if the hardware supports non-contiguous CBM?
Sure.
The vendor check can be in there to make it obvious what is going on:
/* AMD always supports non-contiguous CBM. */
if (get_vendor() == AMD)
return true;
/* CPUID check for Intel here. */
The "sparse_masks" from kernel can then be checked against
hardware support with an appropriate (no mention of CPUID)
error message if this fails.
Something like this?
