x86/intel_rdt: Making CBM name and type more explicit

rchatre · KAGA-KOKO · commit 9af4c0a6dc1a · 2018-06-23T13:03:43.000+02:00
cbm_validate() receives a pointer to the variable that will be initialized with a validated capacity bitmask. The pointer points to a variable of type unsigned long that is immediately assigned to a variable of type u32 by the caller on return from cbm_validate(). Let cbm_validate() initialize a variable of type u32 directly. At this time also change tha variable name "data" within parse_cbm() to a name more reflective of the content: "cbm_val". This frees up the generic "data" to be used later when it is indeed used for a collection of input.
