[PATCH] coresight: Handle build path error

[Suzuki K Poulose]

Enabling a component via sysfs (echo 1 > enable_source), would
trigger building a path from the enabled sources to the sink.
If there is an error in the process (e.g, sink not enabled or
the device (CPU corresponding to ETM) is not online), we never report
failure, except for leaving a message in the dmesg.

Do proper error checking for the build path and return the error.

Before:
 $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
 $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/cs_etm/cpu2/enable_source
 $ echo $?
 0

After:
 $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
 $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/cs_etm/cpu2/enable_source
 -bash: echo: write error: No such device or address
