commit fadf3a44e974b030e7145218ad1ab25e3ef91738 upstream.

Connection child names associated to ports can sometimes be NULL,
which is the case when booting a system on QEMU or when the Coresight
power domain isn't switched on.

This patch is adding a check to make sure a NULL string isn't fed
to strcmp(), something that avoid crashing the system.

SysFS rules stipulate that only one value can be conveyed per
file.  As such splitting the "status" interface in individual files.

This is also useful for user space applications - that way they can
probe each file individually rather than having to parse a list of entries.

1. TRCRSCTLRn - Resource Selection Control Registers n=0~1 are reserved,
   we shouldn't access them.
2. The max number of 'n' here is defined in TRCIDR4.NUMRSPAIR whoes value
   indicates the number of resource selection *pairs*, and 0 indicates
   one resource selection pair, 1 indicates two pairs, and so on ...

So, the total number of resource selection control registers which we can
access is (TRCIDR4.NUMRSPAIR * 2)

The Coresight ETM drivers already support context-ID tracing, but it won't
work when PID namespace is enabled. This is because when using PID
namespace a process id (ie. VPID) seen from the current namespace differs
from the id (ie. PID) seen by kernel.

So when users write the process id seen by themselves to ETM, there needs
to be a translation from VPID to PID, as such ETM drivers will write the
PID into the Context ID register correctly.

<title>coresight-etm4x: Change the name of the ctxid_val to ctxid_pid</title>

'ctxid_val' array was used to store the value of ETM context ID comparator
which actually stores the process ID to be traced, so using 'ctxid_pid' as
its name instead make it easier to understand.

This patch also changes the ABI, it is normally not allowed, but
fortunately it is a testing ABI and very new for now. Nevertheless,
if you don't think it should be changed, we could always add an alias
for userspace.
