The arm_cspmu_state mainly protects during new backend registration when
the device is attached to standard implementation. All devices are attached to
standard implementation initially when arm_cspmu module is loaded, since there
is no backend yet. On backend registration, the standard impl is replaced by
backend impl. However, the module unloading mechanism doesn't provide
protection because standard impl is owned by arm_cspmu module, which
is not unloaded during registration.

The refcount may not be required if the devices are not attached to standard
Implementation by default, and the unreg doesn't fallback to it. But that makes
the devices usable only when there is a vendor backend available.

The bitfield comparison in impl_param_match can be reused for different purposes:
1. Test between two mask/value pairs to check if device id ranges from
both pairs are intersecting. We use it during validation in (un)registration.
2. Along with to_impl_param, we can compare a pmiidr value with a
mask/value pair to check if a device is compatible with a backend. We use
it during reprobe and initializing impl_ops.

Got it on the CAPITAL letters, I will change on next revision.
