coresight: etb10: Fix possible NULL ptr dereference in etb_enable_perf()
There was a report of NULL pointer dereference in ETF enable path for perf CS mode with PID monitoring. It is almost 100% reproducible when the process to monitor is something very active such as chrome and with ETF as the sink, not ETR. But code path shows that ETB has a similar path as ETF, so there could be possible NULL pointer dereference crash in ETB as well. Currently in a bid to find the pid, the owner is dereferenced via task_pid_nr() call in etb_enable_perf() and with owner being NULL, we can get a NULL pointer dereference, so have a similar fix as ETF where we cache PID in alloc_buffer() callback which is called as the part of etm_setup_aux().
