+* Optional properties for all components:
+
+	* arm,coresight-loses-context-with-cpu : boolean. Indicates that the
+	  hardware will lose register context on CPU power down (e.g. CPUIdle).
+	  An example of where this may be needed are systems which contain a
+	  coresight component and CPU in the same power domain. When the CPU
+	  powers down the coresight component also powers down and loses its
+	  context. This property is currently only used for the ETM 4.x driver.

 * Optional properties for ETM/PTMs:
 
 	* arm,cp14: must be present if the system accesses ETM/PTM management
