[PATCH v2] coresight: ete: Always save state on power down

[James Clark]

System register ETMs and ETE are unlikely to be preserved on CPU power
down. The ETE DT binding also never documented
"arm,coresight-loses-context-with-cpu" so nobody would have legitimately
been able to use that binding to fix it and ACPI has no such binding at
all.

Fix it by hard coding the setting for sysreg ETMs (ETE is always sysreg)
or ACPI boots.

This fixes the following error when using Coresight with ACPI on the FVP
which supports CPU PM:

  coresight ete0: External agent took claim tag
  WARNING: drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-core.c:248 at coresight_disclaim_device_unlocked+0xe0/0xe8, CPU#0: perf/117

Fixes: 35e1c9163e02 ("coresight: ete: Add support for ETE tracing")

Fix PM save on ETE, which is an issue that showed up on the FVP when
booted with ACPI and the newly enabled idle states.
---
Changes in v2:
- Expand rule to also save for ACPI and sysreg ETMs. Now module param is
  only read for MMIO ETMs and DT.
- Drop change to save the result in drvdata as the single global is
  simpler.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260428-james-cs-ete-pm_save_enable-v1-0-c7a90ca6f43b@linaro.org
