x86/resctrl: Avoid confusion over the new X86_RESCTRL config
"Resource Control" is a very broad term for this CPU feature, and a term
that is also associated with containers, cgroups etc. This can easily
cause confusion.
Make the user prompt more specific. Match the config symbol name.
[ bp: In the future, the corresponding ARM arch-specific code will be
under ARM_CPU_RESCTRL and the arch-agnostic bits will be carved out
under the CPU_RESCTRL umbrella symbol. ]
