The intention of the resctrl selftests is to only run the tests associated with the feature(s) supported by the platform. Through parsing of the feature flags found in /proc/cpuinfo it is possible to learn which features are supported by the plaform.
There are currently two issues with the platform feature detection that together result in tests always being run, whether the platform supports a feature or not. First, the parsing of the the feature flags loads the line containing the flags in a buffer that is too small (256 bytes) to always contain all flags. The consequence is that the flags of the features being tested for may not be present in the buffer. Second, the actual test for presence of a feature has an error in the logic, negating the test for a particular feature flag instead of testing for the presence of a particular feature flag.
These two issues combined results in all tests being run on all platforms, whether the feature is supported or not.
Fix these issue by (1) increasing the buffer size being used to parse the feature flags, and (2) change the logic to test for presence of the feature being tested for.

Please note that this is only a partial fix. The current feature detection relies on the feature flags found in /proc/cpuinfo. Quirks and kernel boot parameters are not taken into account. This fix only addresses the parsing of feature flags. If a feature has been disabled via kernel boot parameter or quirk then the resctrl tests would still attempt to run the test for it.
