[PATCH v3 0/3] Rework panthor's cache flush and soft reset locking

[Nicolas Frattaroli]

There are two problems in panthor's cache flushing/soft reset code
related to locking.

The first problem is that the spinlocks are taken with _irqsave, even
though the contended lock is never acquired in a raw interrupt handler.
Only a threaded handler locks it.

The second problem is that the wait_event condition references
pending_reqs without holding the required lock. This means there's a
data race.

While resolving the first problem is easy, the second problem requires
adding some more macro variants to wait.h, which is done in the first
patch.

New tracepoints to debug cache flushing duration without initial locking
waits is thrown in for good measure as well, to complement what's in
lock_stat and what the function tracer can already do.

Changes in v3:
- Drop new wait_event macro patch as the existing ones have a memory
  barrier that makes the current use valid
- Rewrite fix patch to use scoped guards, and just get rid of the IRQ
  disabling
- Add separate fix for the outside-of-lock pending_reqs clearing in soft
  reset path
- Move tracepoint patch to before fixes for easier before/after testing
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260730-panthor-cache-flush-fix-v2-0-28790478bfff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Changes in v2:
- Use trace event template for the two tracepoints (ty Steven Rostedt)
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260729-panthor-cache-flush-fix-v1-0-205921ed3c81@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
