Add support for using TMC-ETR as backend for ETM perf tracing.
We use software double buffering at the moment. i.e, the TMC-ETR
uses a separate buffer than the perf ring buffer. The data is
copied to the perf ring buffer once a session completes.

The TMC-ETR would try to match the larger of perf ring buffer
or the ETR buffer size configured via sysfs, scaling down to
a minimum limit of 1MB.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
