But why ? As long as we do not enable or touch any CPU specific bits in the probe, why do we need to fail this ? What are you trying to fix ?
Please could you share the log if you are hitting something ? This looks like masking a problem.

We found that when the CPU core is disabled, for example, CPU3 is disabled, but
CPU3 CTI node corresponding to CPU3 still exists. In fact, in this case, CPU3 CTI
has been unable to trigger CPU3 properly since CPU3 is in an inactive state. This change
is to avoid configuring the CPU CTI of the CPU that has been disabled in this case.
Who is configuring the trigger ? Shouldn't we skip "enabling" the CTI when the associated CPU is inactive instead ? Disabling the probe with an error doesn't solve the problem. What if the CPU becomes active later ? What makes sure that the CTI is probed then ?
