Adding compatible string for new coresight debug driver.
Hi Leo, I agree with Mark, this will need a better description.

Humm... The current CoreSight bindings are meant to describe IPs included in the HW assisted trace architecture. This new driver, althought considered to be part of the CoreSight umbrella, falls under the debugging domain. Adding the bindings in this file may lead people to beleive this driver fits into the CoreSight framework currently supported, which isn't the case. As such it is probably a good idea to spin off a new file, "coresight-debug.txt" to handle this driver. Mark, what's your take on this?
