Currently, the list of stm_sources linked to an stm device is protected by a spinlock, which also means that sources' .unlink() method is called under this spinlock. However, this method may (and does) sleep, which means trouble. This patch slightly reworks locking around stm::link_list so that bits that might_sleep() are called with a mutex held instead. Modification of this list requires both mutex and spinlock to be held, while looking at the list can be done under either mutex or spinlock.

Source device's link is protected with srcu, mark it as such to have proper build-time validation of accesses to this field. The update side that's dereferencing it under an update lock also needs an accessor to dereference this field to keep sparse happy.

A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM. This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP stream. This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency. For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism. For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that can be connected to an stm device at run time.
