[ Upstream commit 859d510e58dac94f0b204b7b5cccafbc130d2291 ]
If the specified/hinted sink is not reachable from a subset of the CPUs, we could end up unable to trace the event on those CPUs. This is the best effort we could do until we support 1:1 configurations. Fail gracefully in such cases avoiding a WARN_ON, which can be easily triggered by the user on certain platforms (Arm N1SDP), with the following trace paths :
CPU0 \ -- Funnel0 --> ETF0 --> / \ CPU1 \ MainFunnel CPU2 / \ / -- Funnel1 --> ETF1 --> / CPU1
$ perf record --per-thread -e cs_etm/@ETF0/u -- <app>
could trigger the following WARNING, when the event is scheduled on CPU2.

Even though we don't support using separate sinks for the ETMs yet (e.g, for 1:1 configurations), we should at least honor the user's choice and handle the limitations gracefully, by simply skipping the tracing on ETMs which can't reach the requested sink.
