- Align and show updated ls devices output from the TC2, based on
  current driver

- Provide an example from an ETMv4 based system (Juno)

- Reflect changes to the way the RAM write pointer is accessed since
  it got changed in commit 7d83d17795ef ("coresight: tmc: adding sysFS
  management entries").

v4: v3 + Randy and Mathieu's acked-bys, for Jonathan to apply.
v3: address Randy Dunlap's showns->shown,  corrected - and + line merging
v2: address Mathieu's comment about clarifying the sinks on the Juno
    vs. TC2 platforms.
