out:
On some QCOM platforms like SC7180, SDM845 and SM8150, reading TMC mode register without proper coresight power management can lead to async exceptions like the one in the call trace below in tmc_read_prepare_etb(). This can happen if the user tries to read the TMC etf data via device node without setting up source and the sink first. Fix this by having a check for coresight sysfs mode before reading TMC mode management register.
