In it's current form the TMC probe() function allocates
trace buffer memory at boot time, event if coresight isn't

This patch allocates trace buffers on the fly, when the
coresight subsytem is sollicited.  Allocated buffers are

nit: *subsystem* is *solicited*.

released when traces are read using the device descriptors

Instead of spilling the spin_unlock_irq_restore() and return from too many
different places in the function above, could we do :

This check should be brought down after the MODE check below for better error
check.

Both here and above in the etf/etb case, could we do a preliminary check
by taking the lock where we may not have to allocate the buffer and allocate
it if necessary and retake the lock ? I know it could make the code a bit more
complex, but could save us on unnecessary allocations.

Also it would be good to consolidate the return points here as well for the
error path.
