Document the device tree bindings for Embedded Trace Extensions.
ETE can be connected to legacy coresight components and thus
could optionally contain a connection graph as described by
the CoreSight bindings.

+description: |
+ Arm Embedded Trace Extension(ETE) is a per CPU trace component that
+ allows tracing the CPU execution. It overlaps with the CoreSight ETMv4
+ architecture and has extended support for future architecture changes.
+ The trace generated by the ETE could be stored via legacy CoreSight
+ components (e.g, TMC-ETR) or other means (e.g, using a per CPU buffer
+ Arm Trace Buffer Extension (TRBE)). Since the ETE can be connected to
+ legacy CoreSight components, a node must be listed per instance, along
+ with any optional connection graph as per the coresight bindings.
+ See bindings/arm/coresight.txt.

We use 'cpus' in a couple of other places, let's do that here for
consistency.
This is following the existing CoreSight bindings for ETM. The same driver
probes both. Also there can only ever be a single CPU for ete/etm. So, we
would prefer to keep it aligned with the existing bindings to avoid causing
confusion.

You have to define what each 'port' is if there can be more than 1. If
there's only ever 1 then you just need 'port' though maybe all the
coresight bindings require 'out-ports'. And the port nodes need a $ref
to '/schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port'.
All CoreSight components require an out-ports and/or in-ports. The ETM/ETE
always has one port, but must be under out-ports in line with the CoreSight
bindings.
Does this look more apt:
out-ports:

Output connection from the ETE to legacy CoreSight trace bus.
poperties:
port:
$ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port
Correction, the above should be :
+ out-ports:
+ type: object
+ description: |
+ Output connections from the ETE to legacy CoreSight trace bus.
+ properties:
+ port:
+ $ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port
That works fine for me. Does that look fine ? Some day, we should convert the
coresight dt bindings to yaml and import the out-ports/in-ports from the scheme :-)
Cheers
