IIUC, either the old kernel or newer kernel, both we can find the event
from ($SYSFS)/bus/event_source/devices/cs_etm/sinks/; the only
difference between them is the naming convention.

So the doc can use the same location to find event for both new and
old kernel, and explain the naming convention difference?
