child_fwnode should be a read only property based on the DT or ACPI. If it's cleared on the parent device when a child is unloaded, then when the child is loaded again the connection won't be remade.
child_dev should be cleared instead which signifies that the connection should be remade when the child_fwnode registers a new coresight_device.
Similarly the reference count shouldn't be decremented as long as the parent device exists. The correct place to drop the reference is in coresight_release_platform_data() which is already done.
Reproducible on Juno with the following steps:
# load all coresight modules. $ cd /sys/bus/coresight/devices/ $ echo 1 > tmc_etr0/enable_sink $ echo 1 > etm0/enable_source # Works fine ^
$ echo 0 > etm0/enable_source $ rmmod coresight-funnel $ modprobe coresight-funnel $ echo 1 > etm0/enable_source -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
