Actually,

domain_add_cpu r->name = L3, r->alloc_capable = 1, r->mon_capable = 1
domain_add_cpu r->name = L3DATA, r->alloc_capable = 1, r->mon_capable = 0
domain_add_cpu r->name = L3CODE, r->alloc_capable = 1, r->mon_capable = 0

rdt_get_mon_l3_config() will only set r->mon_capable = 1 for L3.

Here it only check L3, so it will skip correctly for L3DATA and L3CODE
to not call cancel_delayed_work(). Recalled the above that only L3 will
have r->capable set.

if (r == &rdt_resources_all[RDT_RESOURCE_L3]) {
if (is_mbm_enabled() && cpu == d->mbm_work_cpu) {
cancel_delayed_work(&d->mbm_over);

Hence, r->mon_capable check seems redundant here.
