[RFC PATCH 2/8] coresight: syscfg: Update load API for config loadable modules

[Mike Leach <mike.leach@linaro.org>]

CoreSight configurations and features can be added as kernel loadable
modules. This patch updates the load owner API to ensure that the module
cannot be unloaded either:-
1) if the config it supplies is in use
2) if the module is not the last in the load order list.
