Document the device tree bindings for Embedded Trace Extensions.
ETE can be connected to legacy coresight components and thus
could optionally contain a connection graph as described by
the CoreSight bindings.

Ok.

And then you need:

         properties:
           port:
             description: what this port is
             $ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port
Isn't this already covered by the definition of ports ? There are no
fixed connections for ETE. It is optional and could be connected to
any legacy CoreSight component. i.e, a "ports" object can have port
objects inside.
'properties/ports' only defines that you have 'port' nodes within it.
quoted
Given we have defined out-ports as an object "confirming to the ports"
do we need to describe the individual port nodes ?
Yes, you have to define what the 'port' nodes are. A port is a data
stream and you should know what your hardware has. What the data
stream is connected to is outside the scope of the binding.
Ok, I have included the above changes for the next version.

Thanks
Suzuki
