The logic looks good to me.

Can we improve a bit with a cached flag to avoid every time checking the
CLAIMSET, we can read it only once at init time instead.

- We can add a new flag ("bool claim_impl" in the struct csdev_access),
  by default the field will be zero.

- The drivers support claim tags call coresight_clear_self_claim_tag()
  in probe (see __catu_probe() as an example), we can call a new
  function coresight_init_claim_tag() to replace it, this function sets
  "claim_impl" properly and clear the tag if supported.

- Afterwards, simply check the "claim_impl" flag.

Now we only care about the self-host bit. Can reuse existed macros ?

  CORESIGHT_CLAIM_MASK
  CORESIGHT_CLAIM_SELF_HOSTED

I don't mind if extend CORESIGHT_CLAIM_MASK to 8 bits and even remove
CORESIGHT_CLAIM_INVALID (as it cannot cover other invalid values). Or we
can defer the extension as needed later.

Thanks,
Leo
