    lib: Add register read/write tracing support · d593d64f

    Generic MMIO read/write i.e., __raw_{read,write}{b,l,w,q} accessors
    are typically used to read/write from/to memory mapped registers
    and can cause hangs or some undefined behaviour in following few
    cases,
    
    * If the access to the register space is unclocked, for example: if
      there is an access to multimedia(MM) block registers without MM
      clocks.
    
    * If the register space is protected and not set to be accessible from
      non-secure world, for example: only EL3 (EL: Exception level) access
      is allowed and any EL2/EL1 access is forbidden.
    
    * If xPU(memory/register protection units) is controlling access to
      certain memory/register space for specific clients.
    
    and more...
    
    Such cases usually results in instant reboot/SErrors/NOC or interconnect
    hangs and tracing these register accesses can be very helpful to debug
    such issues during initial development stages and also in later stages.
    
    So use ftrace trace events to log such MMIO register accesses which
    provides rich feature set such as early enablement of trace events,
    filtering capability, dumping ftrace logs on console and many more.
    
    Sample output:
    
    rwmmio_write: __qcom_geni_serial_console_write+0x160/0x1e0 width=32 val=0xa0d5d addr=0xfffffbfffdbff700
    rwmmio_post_write: __qcom_geni_serial_console_write+0x160/0x1e0 width=32 val=0xa0d5d addr=0xfffffbfffdbff700
    rwmmio_read: qcom_geni_serial_poll_bit+0x94/0x138 width=32 addr=0xfffffbfffdbff610
    rwmmio_post_read: qcom_geni_serial_poll_bit+0x94/0x138 width=32 val=0x0 addr=0xfffffbfffdbff610
