At present the generic coresight_get_cpu() deals with both DT and ACPI
bindings.
To refactor this would require re-factoring both binding types - and
at present we have no definition for ACPI bindings for CTI and hence
no way of knowing how the embedded cpu node is going to be
represented.

I think we have to take just the DT binding as is for now as a CTI
specific element and consider if it is worth re-factoring once the
ACPI bindings are defined
