I don't mind it allocates bitmask with nr_trig_max, but AI review
suggests that when in_sigs / out_sigs bigger than nr_trig_max, it might
access memory out-of-boundary (see cti_plat_read_trig_group()).

It is good to add a check:

if (in_sigs > n_trigs || out_sigs > n_trigs) {
dev_err(dev, "trigger signal is out of range: in=%d out=%d nr_max=%d\n",
in_sigs, out_sigs, n_trigs\n");
return NULL;
}

BTW, I have given my review tag on v8, please remember to update
patches with review / ack tags.

Will update.
