But then we are doing that already with this patch in tmc_get_memwidth already.
My point is, we expect named symbols for values defined in the standards, so that
you don't make a mistake when dealing with them. It is really difficult to track
down a bug if we do make a mistake.

I would prefer doing a hardcoded check in tmc_update_etf_buffer() like :

+		/*
+		 * The value written to RRP must be byte-address aligned to
+		 * the width of the trace memory databus _and_ to a frame
+		 * boundary (16 byte), whichever is the biggest. For example,
+		 * for 32-bit, 64-bit and 128-bit wide trace memory, the four
+		 * LSBs must be 0s. For 256-bit wide trace memory, the five
+		 * LSBs must be 0s.
+		 */
+		if (drvdata->memwidth == 8)
+			mask = GENMASK(31, 6);
+		else
+			mask = GENMASK(31, 5);
