We use 'cpus' in a couple of other places, let's do that here for
consistency.

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'.
