In the long run some platform init code is needed for powering
up the JTAG interface and take care of pin multiplexing etc.

Also, isn't DCC (Debug Communications Channel) a JTAG standard? At least
the following does not say anything about DCC being ARM specific:

BTW, we already have ETM (Embedded Trace Module) in arch/arm/kernel/etm.c.
That is set up as amba driver.
