etm4_count keeps track of number of ETMv4 registered and on some systems,
a race is observed on etm4_count variable which can lead to multiple calls
to cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls_cpuslocked(). This function internally calls
cpuhp_store_callbacks() which prevents multiple registrations of callbacks
for a given state and due to this race, it returns -EBUSY leading to ETM
probe failures like below.

coresight-etm4x: probe of 7040000.etm failed with error -16

This race can easily be triggered with async probe by setting probe type
as PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS and with ETM power management property
"arm,coresight-loses-context-with-cpu".

Prevent this race by moving cpuhp callbacks to etm driver init since the
cpuhp callbacks doesn't have to depend on the etm4_count and can be once
setup during driver init. Similarly we move cpu_pm notifier registration
to driver init and completely remove etm4_count usage.

Fixes: 9b6a3f3633a5 ("coresight: etmv4: Fix CPU power management setup in probe() function")
Fixes: 58eb457be028 ("hwtracing/coresight-etm4x: Convert to hotplug state machine")

consider renaming this to etm4_pm_setup() and handing any cpu locking
inside the function.
In the circumstances - as part of the driver init rather than probe it
may be sufficient to call the cpuhp_setup functions without the
_cpuslocked suffix and allow the calls to lock the cpus as they are
made.
i.e. cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls_cpuslocked() => cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls()

Sure, will make this change.

Yes, thanks for the review Mike.
