Are you working on the latest code base? For example, the mainline
kernel or coresight next branch.

The latest code already has comment for reading, and I saw a duplicated
"reading" field in tmc_drvdata.

The tmc_resrv_buf structure does not have the fields "pid",
"stop_on_flush", "buf", etc. They have been moved into the tmc_drvdata
structure.

Thanks,
Leo
