Subject: [PATCH V7 0/3] coresight: etm: Make cycle count threshold user configurable

This series makes ETM TRCCCCTRL based 'cc_threshold' user configurable via
the perf event attribute. But first, this implements an errata work around
affecting ETM TRCIDR3.CCITMIN value on certain cpus, overriding the field.

This series applies on coresight/for-next/queue.
