+ * Adding the resctrl debugfs directory here may not be ideal since

+ * resctrl is mounted.
+ * The reason why the debugfs directory is created here and not in

+ * during the debugfs directory creation also &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key
+ * (the lockdep class of inode->i_rwsem). Other filesystem
+ * interactions (eg. SyS_getdents) have the lock ordering:
+ * &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key --> &mm->mmap_sem
+ * During mmap(), called with &mm->mmap_sem, the rdtgroup_mutex
+ * is taken, thus creating dependency:
+ * &mm->mmap_sem --> rdtgroup_mutex for the latter that can cause
+ * issues considering the other two lock dependencies.
+ * By creating the debugfs directory here we avoid a dependency
