Xiaochen Shen 753694a8df x86/intel_rdt: Fix data type in parsing callbacks
Each resource is associated with a parsing callback to parse the data
provided from user space when writing schemata file.

The 'data' parameter in the callbacks is defined as a void pointer which
is error prone due to lack of type check.

parse_bw() processes the 'data' parameter as a string while its caller
actually passes the parameter as a pointer to struct rdt_cbm_parse_data.
Thus, parse_bw() takes wrong data and causes failure of parsing MBA
throttle value.

To fix the issue, the 'data' parameter in all parsing callbacks is defined
and handled as a pointer to struct rdt_parse_data (renamed from struct
rdt_cbm_parse_data).

Fixes: 7604df6e16 ("x86/intel_rdt: Support flexible data to parsing callbacks")
Fixes: 9ab9aa15c3 ("x86/intel_rdt: Ensure requested schemata respects mode")

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.
