Sudeep Holla 23722fb467 coresight: Fix possible deadlock with lock dependency
With lockdeps enabled, we get the following warning:

======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
------------------------------------------------------
kworker/u12:1/53 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff80000adce220 (coresight_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: coresight_set_assoc_ectdev_mutex+0x3c/0x5c
but task is already holding lock:
ffff80000add1f60 (ect_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: cti_probe+0x318/0x394

which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

-> #1 (ect_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}:
       __mutex_lock_common+0xd8/0xe60
       mutex_lock_nested+0x44/0x50
       cti_add_assoc_to_csdev+0x4c/0x184
       coresight_register+0x2f0/0x314
       tmc_probe+0x33c/0x414

-> #0 (coresight_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}:
       __lock_acquire+0x1a20/0x32d0
       lock_acquire+0x160/0x308
       __mutex_lock_common+0xd8/0xe60
       mutex_lock_nested+0x44/0x50
       coresight_set_assoc_ectdev_mutex+0x3c/0x5c
       cti_update_conn_xrefs+0x6c/0xf8
       cti_probe+0x33c/0x394

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:
       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(ect_mutex);
                               lock(coresight_mutex);
                               lock(ect_mutex);
  lock(coresight_mutex);
 *** DEADLOCK ***

4 locks held by kworker/u12:1/53:
 #0: ((wq_completion)events_unbound){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work+0x1fc/0x63c
 #1: (deferred_probe_work){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work+0x228/0x63c
 #2: (&dev->mutex){....}-{4:4}, at: __device_attach+0x48/0x1a8
 #3: (ect_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: cti_probe+0x318/0x394

To fix the same, call cti_add_assoc_to_csdev without the holding
coresight_mutex and confine the locking while setting the associated
ect / cti device using coresight_set_assoc_ectdev_mutex().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
