No need to say "function" when using (). Also, drop parse_bw(), since it
does not validate CBMs.

"passed through" -> "passed via"?

"rdt_parse_data" -> "struct rdt_parse_data"

Above notes that "simplification" is the primary motivation but I do not think
this change qualifies as a "simplification". How about second paragraph changed
to something like:

	The io_alloc feature also uses CBMs to indicate which portions of
	cache are allocated for I/O traffic. The CBMs are provided by
	user space and need to be validated the same as CBMs provided for
	general (CPU) cache allocation. parse_cbm() cannot be used as-is
	since io_alloc does not have rdtgroup context.

	Pass the mode and CLOSID directly to parse_cbm() via struct rdt_parse_data
	instead of through the rdtgroup struct to facilitate calling parse_cbm() to
	verify the CBM of the io_alloc feature.

(please feel free to improve)

This patch is only about replacing rdtgroup with mode and CLOSID, there is no
motivation for relocating the structure declaration. This looks to be a change
needed by following patch but is another change that becomes unnecessary if
the io_alloc code, specifically resctrl_io_alloc_cbm_write() and
resctrl_io_alloc_parse_line() from next patch, are moved to ctrlmondata.c.

Please fix alignment.
