[PATCH 00/13] coresight: Implement device claim protocol

Coresight architecture defines CLAIM tags for a device to negotiate
control of the components (external agent vs self-hosted). Each device
has a pair of registers (CLAIMSET & CLAIMCLR) for managing the CLAIM
tags. However, the protocol for the CLAIM tags is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.
PSCI has recommendations for the use of the CLAIM tags to negotiate
controls for external agent vs self-hosted use, as defined in
ARM DEN 0022D, Section "6.8.1 Debug and Trace save and restore".

This series implements the recommended protocol by PSCI.

There were two options for the implementation.
1) Have the claim/disclaim operations performed from the coresight
generic driver - This doesn't work unfortunately for ETM devices
as the need cross-CPU calls to access the CLAIM registers. Also,
makes it complex for error recovery and reference counting.

2) Have the claim/disclaim operations performed from the device
specific drivers. The disadvantage is that the calls are sprinkled
in each driver, but this makes the operation much simpler.

This series implements the method (2). The first part of the series
prepares different drivers to handle errors from the lower layer
and clean up the state.
