Subject: [PATCH] coresight: Fix DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON for uninitialized
 attribute

While running the linux-next with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKS_ALLOC enabled,
I get the following splat.

 BUG: key ffffcb5636929298 has not been registered!

Fix this by initialising the dynamically allocated attribute properly.
