[PATCH v2 0/8] Add support to configure TPDM CMB subunit

Introduction of TPDM CMB(Continuous Multi Bit) subunit
CMB subunit is responsible for creating a dataset element, and is also
optionally responsible for packing it to fit multiple elements on a
single ATB transfer if possible in the configuration. The TPDM Core
Datapath requests timestamps be stored by the TPDA and then delivering
ATB sized data (depending on ATB width and element size, this could
be smaller or larger than a dataset element) to the ATB Mast FSM.
The CMB makes trace elements in two modes. In ‘continuous’ mode, every
valid data cycle creates an element. In ‘trace on change’ mode, when
valid data changes on the bus, a trace element is created. In
continuous mode, all cycles where this condition is true create trace
elements. In trace on change mode, a data element is only when the
previously sampled input is different from the current sampled input.

The CMB subunit must be configured prior to enablement. This series
adds support for TPDM to configure the configure CMB subunit.

Once this series patches are applied properly, the new tpdm nodes for
should be observed at the tpdm path /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm*
which supports CMB subunit.

We can use the commands are similar to the below to configure the
TPDMs which support CMB subunit. Enable coresight sink first.
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tmc_etf0/enable_sink
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/reset_dataset
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/cmb_mode
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/cmb_patt/enable_ts
echo 0xFFFFFFFF > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/cmb_patt/tpmr0
echo 0 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/cmb_trig_ts
echo 0xFFFFFFFF > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/cmb_trig_patt/xpr1
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tpdm0/enable_source

Changes in V2:
1. Optimizate and modify this patch series based on the patch series
"Add support to configure TPDM CMB subunit".
2. Modify the functions that read the element size of DSB/CMB in TPDA driver.
