>> This patch fixes the shellcheck warning introduced in function "cs_etm_dev_name". But with the changes that Suzuki suggested, we won't need the function "cs_etm_dev_name" since the code will use "/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cs_etm/" .  In that case, can I drop this patch for now from this series ?

Sure. Thanks!
