We do necessary checks to route the caller here, so we shouldn't really
hit the condition with the tmc_read_prepare(). So WARN_ON_ONCE() might be a
good check to make sure we don't hit it from say, perf driver or something
really went bad under the hood (corrupted ?). I am not too particular about it.
