Hi Leo,

The buffer update callbacks disable the sink before syncing data but misses to re-enable it afterward. This is fine in the general flow, because the sink will be re-enabled the next time the PMU event is activated.
However, during AUX pause and resume, if the sink is disabled in the buffer update callback, there is no chance to re-enable it when AUX resumes.
To address this, the callbacks now check the event state 'event->hw.state'. If the event is an active state (0), the sink is re-enabled.
For the TMC ETR driver, buffer updates are not fully protected by the driver's spinlock. In this case, the sink is not re-enabled if its reference counter is 0, in order to avoid race conditions where the sink may have been completely disabled.

Think that the refcnt should be checked here too.
Does the ETB case need to be handled? - somewhat confusingly the coresight-tmc-etf.c file handles both ETF and ETB.
