I still think cs_etm_get_config() is better than cs_etm_guess_etmcr().

For ETMv3, we directly pass CONFIG to the kernel, and after validation
in the dirver, then the value will be set to ETMCR.  If we already know
the config value is consistent between user space and kernel, why
introduce a redundant "guess" operation here?

Thanks,
