It is a bit shame that I have enabled smatch for static checking but
did not verify this series.

I can confirm that the coresight driver does not have such issue in the
current code base. After merging the CoreSight clock fix series, we
should be able to dismiss all errors reported by smatch in CoreSight
drivers.

A side topic, I observed that smatch does not like the long functions
in drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c. So I built a
smatch version with relaxed limits.
