Hi Leo,

This version looks good to me. I have two minor comments below.

I believe you should, reverse the order of these operations in debug_disable_func()
to prevent getting a panic notifier after we have released the power domain for the
debug.
i.e, :
atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(...);

for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {}

Since we depend on the value of debug_enable above, below in debug_probe()
and in debug_remove(), we should protect these paths using the debug_lock mutex,
like we do above, to make sure we don't create a race.

May be we could warn about a possible issue in the DT ?
