[v2,0/3] selftests: Fix cpuid / vendor checking build issues

Message

This series first generalizes resctrl selftest non-contiguous CAT check
to not assume non-AMD vendor implies Intel. Second, it improves
kselftest common parts and resctrl selftest such that the use of
__cpuid_count() does not lead into a build failure (happens at least on
ARM).

While ARM does not currently support resctrl features, there's an
ongoing work to enable resctrl support also for it on the kernel side.
In any case, a common header such as kselftest.h should have a proper
fallback in place for what it provides, thus it seems justified to fix
this common level problem on the common level rather than e.g.
disabling build for resctrl selftest for archs lacking resctrl support.

v2:
- Removed RFC from the last patch & added Fixes and tags
- Fixed the error message's line splits
- Noted down the reason for void casts in the stub

Ilpo Järvinen (3):
  selftests/resctrl: Generalize non-contiguous CAT check
  selftests/resctrl: Always initialize ecx to avoid build warnings
  kselftest: Provide __cpuid_count() stub on non-x86 archs
