To make software trace sources go through STM(System Trace Module),
need to enable STP (System Trace Protocol) protocols and stm sources.
Refer to Documentation/trace/stm.rst. Then software trace logs can be
captured by STM over TMC sink path. We can enable software trace(Ftrace,
console) logs along with HW trace of coresight component. The timestamp
of software trace logs and hw traces will be in sync which helps to
debug.

Changes in v3:
- update commit message.

Changes in v2:
- select ftrace config explicitly.

It doesn't looks as if you've read the file that I've pointed out previously.

You must describe why your changes are to be enabled for a random user
(not just for some kernel developer or hardware enabled). Do you need
STM and FTRACE in your distro kernel running on your laptop which you
use for the daily work?

For reference, CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled only in 2 defconfig files (and
explicitly disabled in 70).
