TRCSSCSRn has two different types of fields.

1. Capability
2. Status

Moving the entire register from "config" to a common dangling place 
looks like shifting the problem to me.

Could we do something like :

1. Split the fields to two.
   a. Store only the capability information in etmv4_caps. Bits[4:0]
   b. Store the Status bit in drvdata->config , as it is really matters
      to the session ? Bits[31:30]

Add a helper to write/read the TRCSSSRn which would apply/mask the bits 
from drvdata->etmv4_caps->fields to the Status/Pending
