lib/trace_readwrite.c:: replace asm-generic/io with linux/io

asm-generic/io.h can be replaced with linux/io.h and the file will still
build correctly. It is an asm-generic file which should be avoided if
possible.

asm-generic/io: Add _RET_IP_ to MMIO trace for more accurate debug info

Due to compiler optimizations like inlining, there are cases where
MMIO traces using _THIS_IP_ for caller information might not be
sufficient to provide accurate debug traces.

1) With optimizations (Seen with GCC):

In this case, _THIS_IP_ works fine and prints the caller information
since it will be inlined into the caller and we get the debug traces
on who made the MMIO access, for ex:

rwmmio_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 width=32 val=0x0 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

2) Without optimizations (Seen with Clang):

_THIS_IP_ will not be sufficient in this case as it will print only
the MMIO accessors itself which is of not much use since it is not
inlined as below for example:

rwmmio_read: readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: readl+0x48/0x80 width=32 val=0x4 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

So in order to handle this second case as well irrespective of the compiler
optimizations, add _RET_IP_ to MMIO trace to make it provide more accurate
debug information in all these scenarios.

Before:

rwmmio_read: readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: readl+0x48/0x80 width=32 val=0x4 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

After:

rwmmio_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 -> readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4
rwmmio_post_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 -> readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 val=0x0 addr=0xffff8000087447f4

lib: Add register read/write tracing support

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
