Subject: [PATCH v3 0/1] coresight: tmc: Explicit type conversions to

Perf cs_etm session executed unexpectedly when AUX buffer > 1G.

  perf record -C 0 -m ,2G -e cs_etm// -- <workload>
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.615 MB perf.data ]

Perf only collect about 2M perf data rather than 2G. This is becasuse
the operation, "nr_pages << PAGE_SHIFT", in coresight tmc driver, will
overflow when nr_pages >= 0x80000(correspond to 1G AUX buffer). The
overflow cause buffer allocation to fail, and TMC driver will alloc
minimal buffer size(1M). You can just get about 2M perf data(1M AUX
buffer + perf data header) at least.

Explicit convert nr_pages to 64 bit in tmc driver to avoid overflow.

Changes in V2:
Suzuki K Poulose:
    Add another 2 places where needed to fix.

Changes in V1:
James Clark:
    Use a more accurate commit message.
