We will upload coresight source device driver code in addition to
STM/ETM in the future. This patch is only our first step. e.g, this
patch can support to build a path from TPDM(a kind of coresight source
device on Qualcomm target) to sink. At the same time, this patch also
can support coresight source devices other than STM/ETM on the other
targets.

Only coresight_enable function will call coresight_store_path, and seems
like coresight_enable function should be allowed to sleep since it is
protected by Mutex. And I find in function coresight_build_path also
will call kzalloc. Do you have any other concerns about calling kzalloc
here?

I didn't find coresight_{retrieve/remove/}_active_path(csdev) from
coresight next branch. Can you help point out the exact function name
that you think this part of code should be added to?
