This patch adds helper function cs_etm__get_pid_fmt(), by passing
parameter "traceID", it returns the PID format.

This is a bit confusing. If both the bits are set, the session
was run on an EL2 kernel. Thus, the PID is always in CONTEXTIDR_EL2.

Sorry for confusion.  I'd like to rephrase as:

It's possible that the two bits ETM_OPT_CTXTID and ETM_OPT_CTXTID2 are
enabled at the same time when the session runs on an EL2 kernel.  This
means the CONTEXTIDR_EL1 and CONTEXTIDR_EL2 both will be recorded in
the trace data, the tool will selectively use CONTEXTIDR_EL2 as PID.

I haven't looked at how this gets used. But, Shouldn't this be :

		else if (val & BIT(ETM4_CFG_BIT_CTXTID)) ?

Actually it's deliberately to set both bits ETM_OPT_CTXTID2 and
ETM_OPT_CTXTID if user has enable configs "contextid1" and
"contextid2".  So this is exactly the reversed flow in the
function cs_etmv4_get_config().

The point is, we don't care if the user selected both options. What we
care is, where can we find the PID. CONTEXTIDR_EL1 or CONTEXTIDR_EL2.
As such, get_pid_fmt simply should make that decision and pass it on.
So, if the CONTEXTIDR_EL2 is selected (which can only be done successfully
on an EL2 kernel), thats our pid.

So we should return the format for the PID here. i.e
 ETM_OPT_CTXTID2 OR ETM_OPT_CTXTID. But not both.
