Thanks for the review. Sure, I will split them into separate patch in
next post. I have got the tracepoints working now as Steven suggested,
will upload them soon.

To avoid 100's of compilation warnings like below. Also wanted the
parameters of functions like "iowrite32" to be passed to
arch_raw_{read,write}() as is.

./include/asm-generic/io.h: In function ‘iowrite32’:
./include/asm-generic/io-instrumented.h:8:21: warning: initialization
discards ‘volatile’ qualifier from pointer target type
[-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
void __iomem *_a = (a); \
^

macro ‘__raw_write’
#define __raw_writel(v, a) __raw_write((v), a, l)

./arch/arm64/include/asm/io.h:118:36: note: in expansion of macro

Same as above.

Sorry for the confusion, I will fix it and have _l for both
_raw_{read,write}.
