coresight: perf: Update buffer on AUX pause
Due to sinks like ETR and ETB don't support interrupt handling, the
hardware trace data might be lost for continuous running tasks.
This commit takes advantage of the AUX pause for updating trace buffer
to mitigate the trace data losing issue.
The per CPU sink has its own interrupt handling. Thus, there will be a
race condition between the updating buffer in NMI and sink's interrupt
handler. To avoid the race condition, this commit disallows updating
buffer on AUX pause for the per CPU sink. Currently, this is only
applied for TRBE.
