Hi Mike,

Thanks for the suggestion. That would be a better solution, and this 
patch is no longer needed.
I will export etr_sysfs_ops in tmc header file so the CTCU driver can 
retrieve the pointer and restore to the etr_sysfs_ops.
With this solution, sysfs_ops will be switched to byte_cntr_sysfs_ops in 
ctcu_enable and restored in ctcu_disable.

Thanks,
Jie
