x86,fs/resctrl: Create 'event_filter' files read only if they're not configurable

When the counter assignment mode is mbm_event resctrl assumes the MBM
events are configurable and exposes the 'event_filter' files. These files
live at info/L3_MON/event_configs/<event>/event_filter and are used to
display and set the event configuration.

The MPAM architecture has support for configuring the memory bandwidth
utilization (MBWU) counters to only count reads or only count
writes. However, in MPAM, this event filtering support is optional in the
hardware (and not yet implemented in the MPAM driver) but MBM counter
assignment is always possible for MPAM MBWU counters.

In order to support mbm_event mode with MPAM, create the 'event_filter'
files read only if the event configuration can't be changed. A user can
still chmod the file and so also return early with an error from
event_filter_write().

Introduce a new monitor property, mbm_cntr_configurable, to indicate
whether or not assignable MBM counters are configurable. On x86, set this
to true whenever mbm_cntr_assignable is true to keep existing behaviour.
