intel_th: msu: Introduce buffer interface
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.4-rc1 commit 615c164d category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I47H3V CVE: NA -------------------------------- Introduces a concept of external buffers, which is a mechanism for creating trace sinks that would receive trace data from MSC buffers and transfer it elsewhere. A external buffer can implement its own window allocation/deallocation if it has to. It must provide a callback that's used to notify it when a window fills up, so that it can then start a DMA transaction from that window 'elsewhere'. This window remains in a 'locked' state and won't be used for storing new trace data until the buffer 'unlocks' it with a provided API call, at which point the window can be used again for storing trace data. This relies on a functional "last block" interrupt, so not all versions of Trace Hub can use this feature, which does not reflect on existing users.
