etm4_count keeps track of number of ETMv4 registered and on some
systems, a race is observed on etm4_count variable which can
lead to multiple calls to cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls_cpuslocked().
This function internally calls cpuhp_store_callbacks() which
prevents multiple registrations of callbacks for a given state
and due to this race, it returns -EBUSY leading to ETM probe
failures like below.

 coresight-etm4x: probe of 7040000.etm failed with error -16

This race can easily be triggered with async probe by setting
probe type as PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS and with ETM power
management property "arm,coresight-loses-context-with-cpu".

Prevent this race by converting etm4_count variable to atomic.

Fixes: 9b6a3f3633a5 ("coresight: etmv4: Fix CPU power management setup
in probe() function")
Fixes: 58eb457be028 ("hwtracing/coresight-etm4x: Convert to hotplug
state machine")

Sorry, I messed up here, will send a next version fixing this.

Thanks,
