[PATCH v11 21/27] coresight: sysfs: Use source's path pointer for path control

Fri May 1 09:48:02 PDT 2026


Since the path pointer is stored in the source's structure, retrieve it
directly when disabling the path.

As a result, the global variables used for caching path pointers are no
longer needed. Remove them to simplify the code.
