The struct resctrl_val_param has control and monitor groups as char
arrays but they are not supposed to be mutated within resctrl_val().

Convert the ctrlgrp and mongrp char array within resctrl_val_param to
plain const char pointers and adjust the strlen() based checks to
check NULL instead.

Convert !grp_name check in create_grp() into internal sanity check by
returning error if the caller asked to create a group but doesn't
provide a name for the group. The existing code already abides this by
only calling create_grp() if mongrp is non-NULL so the error should
never be returned with the current selftests (ctrlgrp is never NULL).

v5:
- Return 0 if grp_name is null (restore earlier behavior)
- Move the root group note from comment into kerneldoc

v3:
- Removed wrong comment
- Changed grp_name check to return -1 on fail (internal sanity check)

This paragraph is no longer relevant and can be dropped.

"always results success" -> "always results in success"?

Thanks for catching this. I'm absolutely sure I had this open one in 
my editor and removed it but it seems I did not, no idea what happened.
