The patch set is applied for mpam/snapshot/v6.11-rc1 branch of
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/morse/linux.git
repository.

The narrow-partid feature in MPAM allows for a more efficient use of
PARTIDs by enabling a many-to-one mapping of reqpartids (requested PARTIDs)
to intpartids (internal PARTIDs). This mapping reduces the number of unique
PARTIDs needed, thus allowing more tasks or processes to be monitored and
managed with the available resources.

Intpartid(Internal PARTID) is an internal identifier used by the hardware
to represent a specific resource partition. It is a low-level identifier
that the hardware uses to track and manage resource allocation and
monitoring.

Reqpartid(Request PARTID) is an identifier provided by the software when
requesting resources from the memory system. It indicates the desired
partition for resource monitoring. By using reqpartids, software can
monitor specific resources or allow the system to subdivide smaller
granularity partitions within existing partitions to serve as monitoring
partitions.

For the new rmid allocation strategy, it will check whether there is an
available rmid of any reqPARTID which belongs to the input intPARTID.

The MPAM driver statically assigns all reqPARTIDs to respective intPARTIDs,
with a specific illustration as follows:

m - Indicates the number of reqPARTIDs per intPARTID
n - Indicates the total number of intPARTIDs
(m * n) - Represents the total number of reqPARTIDs

intPARTID_1 = 0
    ├── reqPARTID_1_1 = 0
    ├── reqPARTID_1_2 = 0 + n
    ├── ...
    └── reqPARTID_1_m = 0 + n * (m - 1)

intPARTID_2 = 1
    ├── reqPARTID_2_1 = 1
    ├── reqPARTID_2_2 = 1 + n
    ├── ...
    └── reqPARTID_2_m = 1 + n * (m - 1)

...

intPARTID_n = (n - 1)

Each intPARTID has m reqPARTIDs, which are used to expand the number of
monitoring groups under the control group. Therefore, the number of
monitoring groups is no longer limited by the range of MPAM PMG, which
enhances the extensibility of the system's monitoring capabilities.
