I would rather call this "arm,coresight-etm-v4.4+" so that the binding's
semantic is still relevant when dealing with ETM v4.5 and onward.

AFAIUC, "compatible" stands for something that is compatible with v4.4.
All v4.4+ versions that are compatible with v4.4 are covered here.
Having said that I am fine with "arm,coresight-etm-v4.4+" , if it
is fine by the DT conventions.
