There is no guarantee that this is always an "AMBA" device, with this
patchset (which is still under review). Also, doing this check at
every time we enable/disable the ETM is not idea..

May be we should add a concept of "features" and use a bit mask instead,
which can be set at probe time, where we do have this information.

#define ETM4x_IMPDEF_HISILICON_CORE_COMMIT 0
#define ETM4x_IMPDEF_ARCH_N_FEATS 1

struct etmv4_drvdata {

...
DECALRE_BITMAP(arch_features, ETM4x_IMPDEF_ARCH_FEAT_MAX);
}

struct etm4x_arch_feature {
void (*callback)(struct etmv4_drdvata *, bool enable);
};

static struct etm4x_arch_features[] = {
[ETM4x_IMPDEF_HISILICON_CORE_COMMIT] = {
.callback = etm4x_hisilicon_core_commit,
},
{}
};

static void etm4_enable_arch_specific(struct etmv4_drvdata *drvdata)
{
for_each_set_bit(i, &drvdata->arch_features) {
struct etm4x_arch_feature *ftr = &etm4x_arch_features[i];

if (ftr->callback)
ftr->callback(drvdata, true);
}
}

etm4x_check_arch_features() {
if (hisilicon_etm4x_match_pid)
set_bit(drvdata->arch_features, ETM4x_IMPDEF_HISILICON_CORE_COMMIT);
}

etm4x_probe() {

etm4x_check_arch_features();
}
