This series focuses on CoreSight path power management. The changes can
be divided into four parts for review:
Patches 01~06: Refactor the CPU idle flow with moving common code into
the CoreSight core layer.
Patches 07~14: Add link control during CPU idle.
Patches 15~16: Support the sink (TRBE) control during CPU idle.
Patches 17~19: Move the CPU hotplug flow into the coresight core layer
and simplify the code.
This series is rebased on the coresight-next branch and has been verified
on Juno-r2 and FVP RevC.

Changes in v5:
- Set the per-CPU source pointer on target CPU (Suzuki).
- Reused existed enable/disable buffer functions in TRBE callbacks
(James).
- Refactored refcount for source devices in SysFS mode.
- Released path in cpu-hotplug off flow to avoid memory leak.
- Updated ETMv3 driver when move common code into core layer.
- Rebased on the latest coresight-next branch.
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251104-arm_coresight_path_power_management_improvement-v4-0-3d4bba674709@arm.com
Changes in v4:
- Changed to store path pointer in coresight_device, this is easier for
fetching path pointer based on source device (Mike).
- Dropped changes in CTI driver.
- Only disabled path for CPU hot-plugged off but not enable path for
hot-plugged in.
- Removed James' test tags for modified patches.
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250915-arm_coresight_power_management_fix-v3-0-ea49e91124ec@arm.com
