[PATCH 5.15.y] coresight: etb10: restore atomic_t for shared reading state

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Runyu Xiao <runyu.xiao@seu.edu.cn>

[ Upstream commit fa09f08ede3db3050ae16ae1ed92c902d0cada23 ]

The etb10 miscdevice uses drvdata->reading as a shared exclusivity gate
for userspace buffer access. etb_open() claims that gate with
local_cmpxchg(), and etb_release() clears it with local_set().

That gate is shared per-device state rather than CPU-local state. A
running system can reach it whenever /dev/<etb> is opened, closed, and
reopened by different tasks while the device remains registered, so the
same drvdata->reading variable may be claimed on one CPU and later
cleared on another.

This code used to use atomic_t for the same gate, but commit
27b10da8fff2 ("coresight: etb10: moving to local atomic operations")
changed it to local_t even though the access pattern remained cross-task
and cross-CPU. Restore atomic_t together with atomic_cmpxchg() and
atomic_set() so the exclusivity gate again uses a primitive intended
for shared state.

The issue was found on Linux v6.18.21 by our static analysis tool while
scanning surviving local_t-on-shared-state sites, and then manually
reviewed against the live etb10 file-op path.

It was runtime-validated with a reproducible QEMU no-device KCSAN PoC
that kept the same report-local contract:

  1. use one shared struct etb_drvdata carrier and its
     drvdata->reading gate;
  2. call etb_open() and etb_release() sequentially on that gate to
     confirm the original claim/clear path;
  3. bind the open side to CPU0 and the release side to CPU1 for the
     same gate to show cross-CPU ownership;
  4. run bound workers that repeatedly race etb_open() and
     etb_release() on the same gate until KCSAN reports a target hit.

The harness recorded:

  L1 passed open=1 release=1
  reading_after_open=1 reading_after_release=0
  L2 passed open_cpu=0 release_cpu=1
  cross_cpu_release=1 reading_after=0 open_ret=0

Representative KCSAN excerpt from the no-device validation run:

  BUG: KCSAN: data-race in etb_open.constprop.0.isra.0 [vuln_msv]

  value changed: 0x00000000 -> 0x00000001

  Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on:
  CPU: 0 PID: 215 Comm: etb10_l3_a Tainted: G           O       6.1.66 #2

This no-device harness is not a real ETB10 hardware end-to-end run, but
it preserves the same shared drvdata->reading gate and the same
etb_open()/etb_release() claim/clear contract. No real ETB10 hardware
was available for runtime testing.

Build-tested with:
  make olddefconfig
  make -j"$(nproc)" drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etb10.o
