Instead of chasing every call that may involve BMEC I think it will be simpler to
disable BMEC support during initialization when ABMC is detected. Specifically,
on systems that support both BMEC and ABMC rdt_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_BMEC) returns
false. 

I would also like to consider enhancing mevt->configurable to handle all different
ways in which events can be configured. For example, making mevt->configurable an
enum that captures how event can be configured instead of keeping mevt->configurable
a boolean for BMEC support and handling ABMC completely separately. I hope this
may become clearer when using struct mon_evt for ABMC also.
