perf/x86/intel: Rename DMR offcore_rsp attribute to offmodule_rspgrafted
DMR introduces Offmodule Response events in place of the legacy Offcore Response events, but it still exposes the inherited offcore_rsp PMU attribute for programming the corresponding MSR data. Rename the DMR PMU attribute to offmodule_rsp so the sysfs interface matches the underlying event name and avoids user & tooling confusion.

+Description: Enable/disable demoting pages during reclaim
+
+ Page migration during reclaim is intended for systems
+ with tiered memory configurations. These systems have
+ multiple types of memory with varied performance
+ characteristics instead of plain NUMA systems where
+ the same kind of memory is found at varied distances.
+ Allowing page migration during reclaim enables these
+ systems to migrate pages from fast tiers to slow tiers
+ when the fast tier is under pressure. This migration
+ is performed before swap if an eligible numa node is
+ present in cpuset.mems for the cgroup (or if cpuset v1
+ is being used). If cpusets.mems changes at runtime, it
+ may move data to a NUMA node that does not fall into the
+ cpuset of the new cpusets.mems, which might be construed
+ to violate the guarantees of cpusets. Shared memory,
+ such as libraries, owned by another cgroup may still be
+ demoted and result in memory use on a node not present
+ in cpusets.mem. This should not be enabled on systems
+ which need strict cpuset location guarantees.
