This removes the need to do an additional lookup for the total number of ports used and also removes the need to allocate an array of refcounts which is just another representation of a connection array. This was only used for link type devices, for regular devices a single refcount on the coresight device is used. There is a both an input and output refcount in case two link type devices are connected together so that they don't overwrite each other's counts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
