Currently the userspace and kernel filters for guests are never set, so
no trace will be generated for them. Add support for tracing guests by
passing the desired TRFCR value to KVM so it can be applied to the
guest.
By writing either E1TRE or E0TRE, filtering on either guest kernel or
guest userspace is also supported. And if both E1TRE and E0TRE are
cleared when exclude_guest is set, that option is supported too. This
change also brings exclude_host support which is difficult to add as a
separate commit without excess churn and resulting in no trace at all.
cpu_prohibit_trace() gets moved to TRBE because the ETM driver doesn't
need the read, it already has the base TRFCR value. TRBE only needs
the read to disable it and then restore.
Testing
=======
The addresses were counted with the following:
$ perf report -D | grep -Eo 'EL2|EL1|EL0' | sort | uniq -c
Guest kernel only:
$ perf record -e cs_etm//Gk -a -- true
535 EL1
1 EL2
Guest user only (only 5 addresses because the guest runs slowly in the
model):
$ perf record -e cs_etm//Gu -a -- true
5 EL0
Host kernel only:
$ perf record -e cs_etm//Hk -a -- true
3501 EL2
Host userspace only:
$ perf record -e cs_etm//Hu -a -- true
408 EL0
1 EL2

When the TRBE generates an IRQ, we stop the TRBE, collect the trace
and then reprogram the TRBE with the updated buffer pointers, whenever
possible. We might also leave the TRBE disabled, if there is not
enough space left in the buffer. However, we do not touch the ETE at
all during all of this. This means the ETE is only disabled when
the event is disabled later (via irq_work). This is incorrect, as the
ETE trace is still ON without actually being captured and may be routed
to the ATB (even if it is for a short duration).
So, we move the CPU into trace prohibited state always before disabling
the TRBE, upon entering the IRQ handler. The state is restored if the
TRBE is enabled back. Otherwise the trace remains prohibited.
Since, the ETM/ETE driver now controls the TRFCR_EL1 per session, the
tracing can be restored/enabled back when the event is rescheduled
in.

The Trace Filtering support (FEAT_TRF) ensures that the ETM
can be prohibited from generating any trace for a given EL.
This is much stricter knob, than the TRCVICTLR exception level
masks, which doesn't prevent the ETM from generating Context
packets for an "excluded" EL. At the moment, we do a onetime
enable trace at user and kernel and leave it untouched for the
kernel life time. This implies that the ETM could potentially
generate trace packets containing the kernel addresses, and
thus leaking the kernel virtual address in the trace.
This patch makes the switch dynamic, by honoring the filters
set by the user and enforcing them in the TRFCR controls.
We also rename the cpu_enable_tracing() appropriately to
cpu_detect_trace_filtering() and the drvdata member
trfc => trfcr to indicate the "value" of the TRFCR_EL1.

When the CPU enters a low power mode, the TRFCR_EL1 contents could be
reset. Thus we need to save/restore the TRFCR_EL1 along with the ETM4x
registers to allow the tracing.
The TRFCR related helpers are in a new header file, as we need to use
them for TRBE in the later patches.
