Some hardware will ignore bit TRCPDCR.PU which is used to signal
to hardware that power should not be removed from the trace unit.
Let's mitigate against this by conditionally saving and restoring
the trace unit state when the CPU enters low power states.

This patchset introduces a firmware property named
'arm,coresight-needs-save-restore' - when this is present the
hardware state will be conditionally saved and restored.

A module parameter 'pm_save_enable' is also introduced which can
be configured to override the firmware property. This can be set
to never allow save/restore, to conditionally allow it, or to
do as the firmware indicates (default).

We avoid saving the hardware state when coresight isn't in use
to reduce PM latency - we can't determine this by reading the
claim tags (TRCCLAIMCLR) as these are 'trace' registers which need
power and clocking, something we can't easily provide in the PM
context. Therefore we rely on the existing drvdata->mode internal
state that is set when self-hosted coresight is used (and powered).

As we do not have a simple way of determining if an external agent
is using coresight, we don't save/restore for this use case.

minor nit: you may skip the second call to smp_processor_id() as this is called
on from non-preemptible context.

nit: It may be safe to use dev_fwnode(dev), instead of dev->fwnode. But I
see a lot of existing users of dev->fwnode. Not sure it does have an impact.

Looks fine to me ,

Thanks - I'll make these changes.
