I would rewrite the last function like this:

static inline unsigned int etm_readl(struct etm_drvdata *drvdata, u32 off)
{
       u32 val;

       if (drvdata->use_cp14)
               asm_volatile()...
       else
               val = readl_relaxed(drvdata->base + off);
       return val;
}

That unfortunately won't work.  "u32 off" is a numerical value and it
works well in the case were CP14 accesses aren't needed.  On the flip
side that numerical value isn't sufficient to deduce all 3 arguments
(crn, crm, op2) required by instructions mcr/mrc for the right access
to happen - there is simply no correlation between the offset of an
APB bus memory mapped address and the corresponding CP14 access.

You're right, I oversimplified it in my head grossly...

Jens Wiklander pointed me to the macros used in OP-TEE for CP15
access with the same unpredictable patterns:
