Sigh.

What's so wrong with using 'start' and 'end' instead of these cryptic names?

'eclosid' or even when named 'end' is an outright bogus argument to this
function. What you really want is:

static int reset_all_ctrls(struct rdt_resource *r, u32 closid, u32 count)

which works here:

and makes this part understandable:

                reset_all_ctrls(r, rdtgrp->closid, 1);

What you have done: 

> +             reset_all_ctrls(r, rdtgrp->closid, rdtgrp->closid + 1);

made me really look twice to figure out what the heck this is about.

Thanks,
