Chunyan Zhang 262e1f6e39 stm class: ftrace: Add ftrace-export-over-stm driver
This patch adds a driver that models itself as an stm_source called
stm_ftrace. Once the stm device and stm_ftrace have been linked via
sysfs, the driver registers itself as a trace_export and everything
passed to the interface from Ftrace subsystem will end up in the STM
trace engine.

Alexander Shishkin 1192918530 stm class: Add heartbeat stm source device
Heartbeat stm source may have multiple instances (for connecting to
different stm devices). Each instance will send a periodic test message
over its stm device when it is linked. This can be used for testing stm
class framework, stm device drivers or as a heartbeat over the stm link.

Alexander Shishkin e3e5a3d3da stm class: stm_console: Add kernel-console-over-stm driver
This is a simple stm_source class device driver (kernelspace stm trace
source) that registers a console and sends kernel messages over STM
devices.

Alexander Shishkin 2c41538191 stm class: dummy_stm: Add dummy driver for testing stm class
This is a simple module that pretends to be an stm device and discards
all the data that comes in. Useful for testing stm class and its users.

Alexander Shishkin 7bd1d4093c stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devices
A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace
Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such
devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.

This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources
to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do
that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel
identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The
STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to
distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP
stream.

This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism
for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace
source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being
defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy
definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency.

For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and
mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism.

For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that
can be connected to an stm device at run time.
