selftests/resctrl: Rename CQM test as CMT test
CMT (Cache Monitoring Technology) [1] is a H/W feature that reports cache occupancy of a process. resctrl selftest suite has a unit test to test CMT for LLC but the test is named as CQM (Cache Quality Monitoring). Furthermore, the unit test source file is named as cqm_test.c and several functions, variables, comments, preprocessors and statements widely use "cqm" as either suffix or prefix. This rampant misusage of CQM for CMT might confuse someone who is newly looking at resctrl selftests because this feature is named CMT in the Intel Software Developer's Manual. Hence, rename all the occurrences (unit test source file name, functions, variables, comments and preprocessors) of cqm with cmt. [1] Please see Intel SDM, Volume 3, chapter 17 and section 18 for more information on CMT: https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-sdm.html Suggested-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Tested-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>
