ETM v4.4 onwards adds support for system instruction access
to the ETM. Detect the support on an ETM and switch to using the
mode when available.

This will be an issue if you have an aarch32 device (eg Cortex-A32 or
similar, with ETM support but no aarch64)
Agreed and in fact this was part of the header file in my initial versions.
I could move it back there. However, the ETM4x even without this series doesn't
support aarch32. The compilation would fail for various reasons (e.g, readq()).

Don't think we should enforce system instruction access if the device

Agreed, will fix it.

2.24.1
The device tree bindings define the access support intended - and
there is access specific probing. i.e. the next patch splits amba (mem
access) / platform (sys access) driver probes, followed by the common
probe section. The  register / memory access support used should be
made there, and the detection of a compatible device for the register
access i.e. check TRCDEVARCH should be in the platform probe path too
- possibly simplifying things and ensuring the common code changes are
reduced.
I will address this in the next version. I believe we could work around
the problem of missing TRCDEVARCH on older platforms.

Thanks a lot for the review !
