Presently, if a requested resctrl feature is not supported by H/W or is
disabled by user through kernel command line, the test suite treats it as
an error and hence would print something like "not ok MBA: schemata
change". But, not supporting a feature isn't a test error and hence
shouldn't printed as a failure.

So, instead of treating it as an error, use the SKIP directive of TAP
protocol and print it as below i.e. don't report it as test failure.

Sample o/p if CAT isn't supported:
"ok CAT # SKIP Hardware does not support CAT or CAT is disabled"

I think this particular usage of goto could make the flow of the code
harder to trace. Could the tests perhaps be moved to functions to avoid
needing to jump like this? Perhaps there could be a new function per
test, like run_mbm_test(), run_mba_test(), etc. with each test called
when requested by user and with the test exiting cleanly if feature is
not supported by the hardware.

Makes sense. I will change it as suggested.
