I'm good with this patch and have the intention of taking it.

On the flip side I would like a better description of the processor
the .id can be found on.  I think the current upstream code ("ETM 4.0
- Qualcomm" and "ETM 4.0 - Juno board") provides an insufficient
description and won't scale well.

[processor name], [manufacturer]"

As such the above would become:

/* ETM 4.0 - A72, HSXYZ, HiSillicon */

Get back to me if you have questions.

Thanks,
Mathieu.
