x86/resctrl: Add multiple tasks to the resctrl group at once
The resctrl task assignment for monitor or control group needs to be
done one at a time. For example:
$mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
$mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1
$echo 123 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
$echo 456 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
$echo 789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
This is not user-friendly when dealing with hundreds of tasks.
Support multiple task assignment in one command with tasks ids separated
by commas. For example:
$echo 123,456,789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
