My bad, I blindly copy-pasted it from vexpress TC2 platform.

As Suzuki already pointed out, these are standard acronyms used in
various CoreSight specifications. Let me know if you need them to be
expanded instead of abbreviations.

Again Suzuki commented on that. I will leave it to Mathieu who is the
author of the binding to comment further(if any).

But I agree, it would be good to have one line description on each of
them as they are pretty much standard primecells or even URL to their
specifications.

Agreed and fixed locally now.

I understand.

I need to look at the Juno documents again and refine. It may affect
other devices too. Can that be addressed later separately ?

Yes that was the intent, will fix it. But I see some oddities, may be
will fix those once I address the address/bus hierarchy.
