Please refer acpi_dev_present() how to do that. I would like Suzuki's confirmation in case I introduce noise. Thanks, Leo

[PATCH v7 00/11] CoreSight: Refactor power management for ETMv3/4

by Leo Yan

This series is extracted from the CoreSight power management fixes and refactoring [1], focusing on ETMv3/4 power management. This series has been verified on Juno-r2 platform.

[PATCH v4 0/6] Refactoring finding CPU phandles in DT

by Alireza Sanaee

This series refactor the way CPU IDs are retrieved from the device tree. Usually, there is a for loop that goes over every single CPU that can be avoided. This also reduces the amount of NULL pointer checks in drivers. I have abstracted away that loop and introduced a new function (of_cpu_node_to_id) for this. This patchset is a subset of [1], where I removed content and patches relevant to hyper-threaded cores for DT. Based on the discussion, the code refactor is still useful, hence this patchset. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250512080715.82-1-alireza.sanaee@huawei.co Changes since v3: - Rebased to d69eb204c255c35abd9e8cb621484e8074c75eaa Changes since v2: - Addressed Jonathan Cameron's comments. - Added reviewed-by tags. - Added a new commit where I suggest simplfing the code in arch_topology.c to remove the use of cpu_node on failure path. - Improve documentation. - Caught a bug in patch 1. - Commit message fixed for patch 2. Changes since v1: - Rebased on top of the latest mainline. - Addressed Krzysztof Kozlowski's comments -- Hopefully :-) - Addressed Jonathan Cameron's comments.

[PATCH] coresight: tmc: Prevent sysfs parameter changes if sink in use

by Mike Leach

The sysfs files that change the operational parameters for TMC buffer_size, stop_on_flush and trigger_cntr are writable when the TMC is in use. The new values will have no effect and be silently ignored. Alter the sysfs functions to return -EBUSY if the TMC is currently in use, and also protect the write values using the spinlock.
