Subject: [PATCHv2] coresight: tmc: Fix TMC mode read in tmc_read_prepare_etb()

On some QCOM platforms like SC7180, SDM845 and SM8150,
reading TMC mode register without proper coresight power
management can lead to async exceptions like the one in
the call trace below in tmc_read_prepare_etb(). This can
happen if the user tries to read the TMC etf data via
device node without setting up source and the sink first.
Fix this by having a check for coresight sysfs mode
before reading TMC mode management register.
