[PATCH v3] coresight: Fix scheduling while atomic in coresight_cpu_pm_notify()

[Mohamed Ayman <mohamedaymanworkspace@gmail.com>]

Dropping the last reference to a coresight_device can trigger a kernel
panic on PREEMPT_RT builds due to a "scheduling while atomic" violation.

When the CPU enters an idle state, coresight_cpu_pm_notify() is invoked
with local interrupts disabled. It calls coresight_cpu_get_active_path(),
which currently uses coresight_get_percpu_source_ref() to get a kobject
reference, and then immediately drops it with coresight_put_percpu_source_ref().

If this put_device() call drops the very last reference (e.g., due to a
concurrent device unregistration), it synchronously triggers the release
cascade. On PREEMPT_RT, free_percpu() takes a sleeping rt-mutex.
Furthermore, any parent device in the release chain might also acquire
sleeping locks, causing a system crash in the atomic PM context.

Fix this by eliminating the get/put dance entirely in the PM notifier path.
Since coresight_cpu_pm_notify() runs with IRQs disabled, it is safe to
read the per-cpu source pointer directly under the coresight_dev_lock,
check the mode, and return the path without unnecessarily manipulating the
kobject refcount.
