CCITMIN is a 12 bit field and doesn't fit in a u8, so extend it to u16.
This probably wasn't an issue previously because values higher than 255
never occurred.

But since commit 0f55b43dedcd ("coresight: etm: Override TRCIDR3.CCITMIN
on errata affected cpus"), a comparison with 256 was done to enable the
errata, generating the following W=1 build error:

coresight-etm4x-core.c:1188:24: error: result of comparison of
constant 256 with expression of type 'u8' (aka 'unsigned char') is
always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]

if (drvdata->ccitmin == 256)
