The cs_etm PMU, regardless of the underlying trace sink (ETF, ETR or
TRBE), doesn't require contiguous pages for its AUX buffer.
This patch adds the PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_NON_CONTIGUOUS_PAGES capability
to the cs_etm PMU. This allows the kernel to allocate non-contiguous
pages for the AUX buffer, reducing memory fragmentation when using
cs_etm.
