[PATCH] coresight: Add mode check when enable/disable csdev source

The commmit [1] replace "source_ops(csdev)::enable()" with
coresight_enable_source(). After this patch, when enable ETM through
perf mode, the csdev::enable will be set to true. Then if we to disable
the ETM by sysfs mode at the time, the resource will be released
incorrectly, kernel will report the following call trace.

perf record -e cs_etm/@ultra_smb0/ -C 2 sleep 30 &
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/ultra_smb0/enable_sink
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm0/enable_source

The csdev::enable specify the device is currently part of an active
path, when enabling source via perf mode, csdev::enable also should
be set to true. We can add mode check in etm4_disable() to fix that,
if it's done, the sysfs cannot report busy when sysfs to enable ETM
that has been enabled by perf.

Struct coresight_device add member of mode to check device busy in
coresight_(enable/disable)_source function to fixes handle kernel
NULL pointer, and sysfs report busy if perf session is already using
the ETM.
By the way, inperhaps another cleanup patch may be upload to remove
the etmv4_drvdata::mode tmc_drvdata::mode or others.

Test:
perf record -e cs_etm/@ultra_smb0/ -C 2 sleep 30 &
cat /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm2/enable_source
1
echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm2/enable_source
-bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
echo 0 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm2/enable_source
coresight etm2: Someone is already using the tracer
cat /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm2/enable_source
1
