stm class: Support devices that override software assigned masters
Some STM devices adjust software assigned master numbers depending on the trace source and its runtime state and whatnot. This patch adds a sysfs attribute to inform the trace-side software that master numbers assigned to software sources will not match those in the STP stream, so that, for example, master/channel allocation policy can be adjusted accordingly.
