Add tracepoint support to the Qualcomm GENI serial driver to provide
runtime visibility into driver behavior without requiring invasive debug
patches.
The trace events cover UART termios configuration, clock setup, modem
control state, interrupt status, and TX/RX data, making it easier to
diagnose communication issues in the field.

Add tracing to the Qualcomm GENI serial driver to improve runtime
observability.
Trace hooks are added at key points including termios and clock
configuration, manual control get/set, interrupt handling, and data
TX/RX paths.
Usage examples:
Enable all serial traces:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/qcom_geni_serial/enable
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
Example trace output:
2517.938432: geni_serial_clk_cfg: a94000.serial: desired_rate=1843200
