Series coresight: syscfg: Extend configfs for config load | expand

Commit Message

Mike Leach July 4, 2022, 3:42 p.m. UTC
CoreSight uses configfs to represent the user interface to programmed
configurations, which can be loaded and unloaded dynamically via configfs.

These add and remove configurations using register/unregister group
calls.

It has been found that if CONFIG_LOCKDEP is enabled, then it appears to
be confused by the nesting inherent in the fragment semaphores used
by groups and the underlying subsystem.

This patch sets up a mechanism to use separate classes for the fragment
semaphores, in a similar way to that already in place to fix nesting
issues with the i_mutexes.

Can you send me the whole series?  Reviewing a patch 7 out of 7 without
context is basically impossible.
