[PATCH v2] coresight: trbe: Move check for kernel page table isolation from EL0 to probe

From: Sudeep Holla
Date: Thu Feb 03 2022 - 14:02:24 EST


Currently with the check present in the module initialisation, it shouts
on all the systems irrespective of presence of coresight trace buffer
extensions.

Similar to Arm SPE perf driver, move the check for kernel page table
isolation from EL0 to the device probe stage instead of the module
initialisation so that it complains only on the systems that support TRBE.
