    coresight: tmc-etf: Fix global-out-of-bounds in tmc_update_etf_buffer()

    commit 6f755e85c332 (coresight: Add helper for inserting synchronization
    packets) removed trailing '\0' from barrier_pkt array and updated the
    call sites like etb_update_buffer() to have proper checks for barrier_pkt
    size before read but missed updating tmc_update_etf_buffer() which still
    reads barrier_pkt past the array size resulting in KASAN out-of-bounds
    bug. Fix this by adding a check for barrier_pkt size before accessing
    like it is done in etb_update_buffer().
