[PATCH v2 0/3] Add source filtering for multi-port output

From: Tao Zhang

In our hardware design, by combining a funnel and a replicator, it
implement a hardware device with one-to-one correspondence between
output ports and input ports. The programming usage on this device
is the same as funnel. The software uses a funnel and a static
replicator to implement the driver of this device. Since original
funnels only support a single output connection and original
replicator only support a single input connection, the code needs
to be modified to support this new feature. The following is a
typical topology diagram of multi-port output mechanism.

Changes in V2:
1. Change the reference for endpoint property in dt-binding.
-- Krzysztof Kozlowski
2. Change the property name "filter_src" to "filter-src".
-- Krzysztof Kozlowski
3. Fix the errors in running 'make dt_binding_check'.
-- Rob Herring
4. Pass in the source parameter instead of path.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
5. Reset the "filter_src_dev" if the "src" csdev is being removed.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
6. Add a warning if the "filter_src_dev" is of not the
type DEV_TYPE_SOURCE.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
7. Optimize the procedure for handling all possible cases.
-- Suzuki K Poulose

Changes in V1:
1. Add a static replicator connect to a funnel to implement the
correspondence between the output ports and the input ports on
funnels.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
2. Add filter_src_dev and filter_src_dev phandle to
"coresight_connection" struct, and populate them if there is one.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
3. To look at the phandle and then fixup/remove the filter_src
device in fixup/remove connections.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
4. When TPDA reads DSB/CMB element size, it is implemented by
looking up filter src device in the connections.
-- Suzuki K Poulose
