So far we have relied on an undocumented property "slave-mode",
to indicate if the given port is input or not. Since we are
redefining the coresight bindings, define new property for the
"direction" of data flow for a given connection endpoint in the
device.

Each endpoint must define the following property.

  - "direction" : 0 => Port is input
		 1 => Port is output

You haven't documented the binding in bindings/arm/coresight.txt the same way
you did with "coresight,hwid".  I'm guessing you simply forgot to do a "git add"
on the file when preparing the patchset.

I suggested of_coresight_endpoint_get_port_id() in my review of 6/8.  I'm good
with either "ep" or "endpoint", as long as the names are consistent.

Yep, that's right. This is what I have for the documentation :

and changes to the examples as well..
