The TAD PMU platform driver has ACPI and OF match tables, but only
the ACPI table is published. A Device Tree platform device emits an
OF modalias, so the ACPI alias does not select this module for it.
Publish the OF table inside CONFIG_OF and retain ACPI support.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but modifying the device's
shared memory resource start address in-place during probe corrupts it for
future probe attempts:
drivers/perf/marvell_cn10k_tad_pmu.c:tad_pmu_probe() {
...
res = platform_get_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, 0);
if (!res) {
dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Mem resource not found\n");
return -ENODEV;
}
...
/* ioremap the distributed TAD pmu regions */
for (i = 0; i < tad_cnt && res->start < res->end; i++) {
regions[i].base = devm_ioremap(&pdev->dev,
res->start,
tad_pmu_page_size);
if (!regions[i].base) {
dev_err(&pdev->dev, "TAD%d ioremap fail\n", i);
return -ENOMEM;
}
res->start += tad_page_size;
}
...
}
Because platform_get_resource() returns a pointer to the global platform
device resource, advancing res->start permanently alters it.
If the driver is unbound and rebound, the subsequent probe receives the
corrupted resource where res->start is already advanced past res->end. The
loop will not execute, leaving all regions[i].base pointers as NULL.
Any subsequent perf event execution will then call readq() on a NULL pointer
in tad_pmu_event_counter_read(), resulting in a kernel panic.
Could we avoid modifying the global resource in-place and use a local
variable for the address calculation?
