coresight: Fix csdev connections initialisation
This is a cleanup patch. coresight_device->conns holds an array to point to the devices connected to the OUT ports of a component. Sinks, e.g ETR, do not have an OUT port (nr_outport = 0), as it streams the trace to memory via AXI. At coresight_register() we do : conns = kcalloc(csdev->nr_outport, sizeof(*conns), GFP_KERNEL); if (!conns) { ret = -ENOMEM; goto err_kzalloc_conns; } For ETR, since the total size requested for kcalloc is zero, the return value is, ZERO_SIZE_PTR ( != NULL). Hence, csdev->conns = ZERO_SIZE_PTR which cannot be verified later to contain a valid pointer. The code which accesses the csdev->conns is bounded by the csdev->nr_outport check, hence we don't try to dereference the ZERO_SIZE_PTR. This patch cleans up the csdev->conns initialisation to make sure we initialise it properly(i.e, either NULL or valid conns array).
