The coresight drivers have absolutely no control over bind and unbind
operations triggered from sysfs. The operations simply can't be
cancelled or denied event when one or several tracing sessions are
under way. Since the memory associated to individual device is
invariably freed, the end result is a kernel crash when the path from
source to sink is travelled again as demonstrated here[1].
One solution could be to keep track of all the path (i.e tracing
session) that get created and iterate through the elements of those path
looking for the coresight device that is being removed. This proposition
doesn't scale well since there is no upper bound on the amount of
concurrent trace session that can be created.
With the above in mind, this patch prevent devices from being unbounded
from their driver by using the driver->suppress_bind_attr option. That way
trace sessions can be managed without fearing to loose devices.
Since device can't be removed anymore the xyz_remove() functions found in
each driver is also removed.

As can be seen from the datasheet of the CoreSight
Components, DDI0314 table A-8 the ETB has a clock signal
apart from the AHB interconnect ("amba_pclk", that we're
already handling) called ATCLK, ARM Trace Clock, that SoC
implementers may provide from an entirely different clock
source. So to model this correctly create an optional
path for handling ATCLK alongside the PCLK so we don't
break old platforms that only define PCLK ("amba_pclk") but
still makes it possible for SoCs that have both clock signals
(such as the DB8500) to fetch and prepare/enable/disable/
unprepare both clocks.
The ATCLK is enabled and disabled using the runtime PM
callbacks.

This uses runtime PM to manage the PCLK ("amba_pclk") instead
of screwing around with the framework by going in and taking
a copy from the amba device. The amba bus core will unprepare
and disable the clock when the device is unused when
CONFIG_PM is selected, else the clock will be always on.
Prior to this patch, as the AMBA primecell bus code enables
the PCLK, it would be left on after probe as
the clk_prepare_enable() and clk_disable_unprepare() was
called and thus just increase and decreas the refcount by
one, without it reaching zero and actually disabling the
clock. Now the runtime PM callbacks will make sure the PCLK
is properly disabled after probe.

We attempt to sanity check the buffer depth reported by the hardware by
making sure it is not less than zero however this check will never be true
since the buffer depth is stored in an unsigned integer. Instead change
the check to look for the top bit being set which was the intention.

When we initialise the ETB driver we attempt to allocate a buffer suitable
for storing the data buffered in the hardware based on sizing information
reported by the hardware. Unfortunately if the hardware is not properly
configured (for example if power domains are not set up correctly) then we
may read back a nonsensically large value and therefore the allocation will
be too big to succeed. Print an error message showing the amount of memory
we tried to allocate if the buffer allocation fails to help users diagnose
such problems.
Normally it is bad practice to print an error message on memory allocation
failures since there are verbose core messages reported for this but in
this case where the allocation size might be incorrect it is a useful hint.

Keeping drivers related to HW tracing on ARM, i.e coresight,
under "drivers/coresight" doesn't make sense when other
architectures start rolling out technologies of the same
nature.
As such creating a new "drivers/hwtracing" directory where all
drivers of the same kind can reside, reducing namespace
pollution under "drivers/".
