Heartbeat stm source may have multiple instances (for connecting to
different stm devices). Each instance will send a periodic test message
over its stm device when it is linked. This can be used for testing stm
class framework, stm device drivers or as a heartbeat over the stm link.

The newly added STM code uses SRCU, but does not ensure that
this code is part of the kernel:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `stm_source_link_show':
include/linux/srcu.h:221: undefined reference to `__srcu_read_lock'
include/linux/srcu.h:238: undefined reference to `__srcu_read_unlock'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `stm_source_link_drop':
include/linux/srcu.h:221: undefined reference to `__srcu_read_lock'
include/linux/srcu.h:238: undefined reference to `__srcu_read_unlock'
This adds a Kconfig 'select' statement like all the other SRCU using
drivers have.

Fixes: 7bd1d4093c ("stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devices")

A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace
Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such
devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.
This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources
to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do
that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel
identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The
STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to
distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP
stream.
This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism
for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace
source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being
defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy
definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency.
For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and
mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism.
For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that
can be connected to an stm device at run time.
