Is it possible to delay the etm_addr_filters_alloc() until this point ?
I understand that this function cannot report back failures if we fail
to allocate memory. Or may be do a lazy allocation from addr_filters_validate(),
when we get the first filter added.

Of course this could be done as a follow up patch to improve things once
we get the initial framework in.

nit: having the variable renamed to etm_filter will make the code a bit more readable
where we populate/validate the filters.

Otherwise looks good
