Some components may not have graph connections for describing
the trace path. e.g., ETE, where it could directly use the per
CPU TRBE. Ignore the absence of graph connections

Should we not determine if it is valid for a particular component not
to have a graph connection?
Prior to this patch an incorrectly configured ETMv4 - which must have
a graph would return an error, after this it will fail silently

I think it doesn't call for a failure. The ETM could still
be probed but is not usable. We provide enough information via the
sysfs, i.e., connection links, which should be sufficient for the
user to detect this case. Also, this change is inline with what
we do for ETMv4 with DT.
