Nitpick: The naming 'ss_status' is a bit confused for capability.
Could we rename 'ss_status' to 'ss_comparator' or a simple one
'ss_cmp' ?

It is a bit weird to use caps to write a register. A smooth way is to
clear STATUS and PENDING bits based on the read back value:
val = etm4x_relaxed_read32(csa, TRCSSCSRn(i));
val &= ~(TRCSSCSRn_STATUS | TRCSSCSRn_PENDING);
etm4x_relaxed_write32(csa, val, TRCSSCSRn(i));

For init cap, we can use explict way:
caps->ss_cmp &= (TRCSSCSRn_PC | TRCSSCSRn_DV |
TRCSSCSRn_DA | TRCSSCSRn_INST);

I think cap->ss_cmp is a good refactoring, but for legacy reason, I am
just wandering if we still need config->ss_status so that it can record
the lastest status (mainly for STATUS bit and PENDING bit).
Otherwise, this Sysfs interface can only provide capability rather
than status value.
Thanks,
