coresight: etm4x: Don't use virtual contextID for non-root PID namespace
As commented in the function ctxid_pid_store(), it can cause the PID values mismatching between context ID tracing and PID allocated in a non-root namespace. For this reason, when a process runs in non-root PID namespace, the driver doesn't allow PID tracing and returns failure when access contextID related sysfs nodes. VMID works for virtual contextID when the kernel runs in EL2 mode with VHE; on the other hand, the driver doesn't prevent users from accessing it when programs run in the non-root namespace. Thus this can lead to same issues with contextID described above. This patch imposes the checking on VMID related sysfs knobs and returns failure if current process runs in non-root PID namespace.
