Load the driver you want to trace and use it. Mmiotrace will only catch MMIO
accesses to areas that are ioremapped while mmiotrace is active.
-[Unimplemented feature:]
During tracing you can place comments (markers) into the trace by
-$ echo "X is up" > /debug/tracing/marker
+$ echo "X is up" > /debug/tracing/trace_marker
This makes it easier to see which part of the (huge) trace corresponds to
which action. It is recommended to place descriptive markers about what you
do.
