x86/intel_rdt: Add L2CDP support in documentation
L2 and L3 Code and Data Prioritization (CDP) can be enabled separately.
The existing mount parameter "cdp" is only for enabling L3 CDP and will be
kept for backwards compability.
Add a new mount parameter 'cdpl2' for L2 CDP.
[ tglx: Made changelog readable ]
