Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] Documentation: coresight: Turn numbered subsections into real subsections

This is to allow them to be referenced in a later commit. There was
also a mistake where sysFS was introduced as section 2, but numbered
as section 1. And vice versa for 'Using perf framework'. This can't
happen with unnumbered sections.
