For readability, it may be nicer to fold the two lines you add for each
helper into one, such as

void __log_write_mmio(u64 val, u8 width, volatile void __iomem *addr);
#define log_write_mmio(val, widtg, addr) do { \
     if (tracepoint_enabled(rwmmio_read)) \
               __log_write_mmio((val), (width), (addr)); \
} while (0)

I wonder if it may even be better to not check for tracepoint_active() in the
inline function at all but always enter the external function when built-in.
This means we do run into the branch, but it also reduces the i-cache footprint.

For general functionality, I think it would be better to trace the returned
value from the read, but I don't know if that defeats the purpose you
are interested in, since it requires the tracing to come after the __raw_read.
