When a resource group is used for Cache Pseudo-Locking then the region of cache ends up being orphaned with no class of service referring to it. The resctrl files intended to manage how the classes of services are utilized thus become irrelevant. The fact that a resctrl file is not relevant can be communicated to the user by setting all of its permissions to zero. That is, its read, write, and execute permissions are unset for all users. Introduce two utilities, rdtgroup_kn_mode_restrict() and rdtgroup_kn_mode_restore(), that can be used to restrict and restore the permissions of a file or directory belonging to a resource group.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
