I thought about that too but the inclusion of etmv4_drvdata cancels any attempts
at making things generic.

And this is done from smp_call_function_single() where returning a meaningful
error value would mandate changes to struct etm_init_arg, which is needlessly
messy for this set. Void my comment.
