coresight: Fix crash when Perf and sysfs modes are used concurrently
Partially revert the change in commit 6148652807ba ("coresight: Enable and disable helper devices adjacent to the path") which changed the bare call from source_ops(csdev)->enable() to coresight_enable_source() for Perf sessions. It was missed that coresight_enable_source() is specifically for the sysfs interface, rather than being a generic call. This interferes with the sysfs reference counting to cause the following crash: $ perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/ -C 0 & $ echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/tmc_etr0/enable_sink $ echo 1 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm0/enable_source $ echo 0 > /sys/bus/coresight/devices/etm0/enable_source Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000001d0 Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000004 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ...

So until we come up with a more complete solution that takes all locking and interaction between both modes into account, just revert back to the old behavior for Perf.
