Subject: [PATCH] coresight: cti: write regsiters directly in cti_enable_hw()

Deadlock as below is triggered by one CPU holds drvdata->spinlock
and calls cti_enable_hw(). Smp_call_function_single() is called
in cti_enable_hw() and tries to let another CPU write CTI registers.
That CPU is trying to get drvdata->spinlock in cti_cpu_pm_notify()
and doesn't response to IPI from smp_call_function_single().

This change write CTI registers directly in cti_enable_hw().
Config->hw_powered has been checked to be true with spinlock holded.
CTI is powered and can be programmed until spinlock is released.
