Documentation: ABI + trace: hisi_ptt: update paths to bus/event_source

To allow for assigning a suitable parent to the struct pmu device
update the documentation to describe the device via the event_source
bus where it will remain accessible.

For the ABI documention file also rename the file as it is named
after the path.

hwtracing: hisi_ptt: Export available filters through sysfs

The PTT can only filter the traced TLP headers by the Root Ports or the
Requester ID of the Endpoint, which are located on the same PCIe core of
the PTT device. The filter value used is derived from the BDF number of
the supported Root Port or the Endpoint. It's not friendly enough for the
users since it requires the user to be familiar enough with the platform
and calculate the filter value manually.

This patch export the available filters through sysfs. Each available
filters is presented as an individual file with the name of the BDF
number of the related PCIe device. The files are created under
$(PTT PMU dir)/available_root_port_filters and
$(PTT PMU dir)/available_requester_filters respectively. The filter
value can be known by reading the related file.

Then the users can easily know the available filters for trace and get
the filter values without calculating.

hwtracing: hisi_ptt: Add support for dynamically updating the filter list

The PCIe devices supported by the PTT trace can be removed/rescanned by
hotplug or through sysfs. Add support for dynamically updating the
available filter list by registering a PCI bus notifier block. Then user
can always get latest information about available tracing filters and
driver can block the invalid filters of which related devices no longer
exist in the system.
