[PATCH v2 01/28] coresight: Change device mode to atomic type
From: Leo Yan
Date: Tue Jul 01 2025 - 10:54:43 EST
The device mode is defined as local type. This type cannot promise
SMP-safe access.
Change to atomic type and impose relax ordering, which ensures the
SMP-safe synchronisation and the ordering between the mode setting and
relevant operations.
Fixes: 22fd532eaa0c ("coresight: etm3x: adding operation mode for etm_enable()")
