Subject: [RFC PATCH v2] coresight: etm4x: Modify core-commit of cpu to avoid the overflow of HiSilicon ETM

When too much trace information is generated on-chip, the ETM will
overflow, and cause data loss. This is a common phenomenon on ETM
devices.

But sometimes we do not want to lose performance trace data, so we
suppress the speed of instructions sent from CPU core to ETM to
avoid the overflow of ETM.

Changes since v1:
- ETM on HiSilicon Hip09 platform supports backpressure, so does
not need to modify core commit.
