This series adds support for the trace performance monitoring and
diagnostics hardware (TPDM and TPDA). It is composed of two major
elements.
a) Changes for original coresight framework to support for TPDM and TPDA.
b) Add driver code for TPDM and TPDA.

Introduction of changes for original coresight framework
Support TPDM as new coresight source.
Since only STM and ETM are supported as coresight source originally.
TPDM is a newly added coresight source. We need to change
the original way of saving coresight path to support more types source
for coresight driver.
The following patch is to add support more coresight sources.
    coresight: core: Use IDR for non-cpu bound sources' paths.

Introduction of TPDM and TPDA
TPDM - The trace performance monitoring and diagnostics monitor or TPDM in
short serves as data collection component for various dataset types
specified in the QPMDA(Qualcomm performance monitoring and diagnostics
architecture) spec. The primary use case of the TPDM is to collect data
from different data sources and send it to a TPDA for packetization,
timestamping and funneling.
     Coresight: Add coresight TPDM source driver
     dt-bindings: arm: Adds CoreSight TPDM hardware definitions
     coresight-tpdm: Add DSB dataset support
     coresight-tpdm: Add integration test support

TPDA - The trace performance monitoring and diagnostics aggregator or
TPDA in short serves as an arbitration and packetization engine for the
performance monitoring and diagnostics network as specified in the QPMDA
(Qualcomm performance monitoring and diagnostics architecture)
specification. The primary use case of the TPDA is to provide
packetization, funneling and timestamping of Monitor data as specified
in the QPMDA specification.
The following patch is to add driver for TPDA.
     Coresight: Add TPDA link driver
     dt-bindings: arm: Adds CoreSight TPDA hardware definitions

The last patch of this series is a device tree modification, which add
the TPDM and TPDA configuration to device tree for validating.
    ARM: dts: msm: Add tpdm mm/prng for sm8250

Once this series patches are applied properly, the tpdm and tpda nodes
should be observed at the coresight path /sys/bus/coresight/devices
e.g.
/sys/bus/coresight/devices # ls -l | grep tpd
tpda0 -> ../../../devices/platform/soc at 0/6004000.tpda/tpda0
tpdm0 -> ../../../devices/platform/soc at 0/6c08000.mm.tpdm/tpdm0

We can use the commands are similar to the below to validate TPDMs.
Enable coresight sink first.

echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tmc_etf0/enable_sink
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/enable_source
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/integration_test
echo 2 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/integration_test
The test data will be collected in the coresight sink which is enabled.
If rwp register of the sink is keeping updating when do
integration_test (by cat tmc_etf0/mgmt/rwp), it means there is data
generated from TPDM to sink.

There must be a tpda between tpdm and the sink. When there are some
other trace event hw components in the same HW block with tpdm, tpdm
and these hw components will connect to the coresight funnel. When
there is only tpdm trace hw in the HW block, tpdm will connect to
tpda directly.
