coresight: catu: Introduce refcount and spinlock for enabling/disabling
When tracing ETM data on multiple CPUs concurrently via the
perf interface, the CATU device is shared across different CPU
paths. This can lead to race conditions when multiple CPUs attempt
to enable or disable the CATU device simultaneously.
To address these race conditions, this patch introduces the
following changes:
1. The enable and disable operations for the CATU device are not
reentrant. Therefore, a spinlock is added to ensure that only
one CPU can enable or disable a given CATU device at any point
in time.
2. A reference counter is used to manage the enable/disable state
of the CATU device. The device is enabled when the first CPU
requires it and is only disabled when the last CPU finishes
using it. This ensures the device remains active as long as at
least one CPU needs it.
