I think that separating this from all the other resctrl file creation
can be a source of confusion and bugs. Why not add the debug files
at the same time as all the other files belonging to a resource group?

How about introducing new flags, perhaps RFTYPE_MON_DEBUG and
RFTYPE_CTRL_DEBUG. When the debug option is enabled (when resctrl_debug
is true) then the appropriate flag can be OR'd with the other flags
before rdtgroup_add_files() is called.

It sounds to me if there are plans to add more of these files. A function
like resctrl_add_debug_files() requires a lot of changes and care (and thus
potential for errors) every time a new debug file is added.

On another note ... what are the plans with this debug area? At some
point it may be better to expand resctrl debugfs.

Yes. I could try that.

Hmm.. I have not thought about that.
