Hi Anshuman,
I have started reviewing this set. As it is quite voluminous comments will
come over serveral days. I will let you know when I am done.

When there are multiple sinks on the system, in the absence
of a specified sink, it is quite possible that a default sink
for an ETM could be different from that of another ETM. However
we do not support having multiple sinks for an event yet. This
patch allows the event to use the default sinks on the ETMs
where they are scheduled as long as the sinks are of the same
type.
e.g, if we have 1x1 topology with per-CPU ETRs, the event can
use the per-CPU ETR for the session. However, if the sinks
are of different type, e.g TMC-ETR on one and a custom sink
on another, the event will only trace on the first detected
sink.
I found the above changelog very confusing - I read it several times and still
couldn't get all of it. In the end this patch prevents sinks of different types
from being used for session, and this is what the text should reflect.
