tracing/mmiotrace: Add NULL check for mmio_trace_array in logging functions
mmio_trace_rw() and mmio_trace_mapping() retrieve mmio_trace_array into
tr and pass it to __trace_mmiotrace_rw() and __trace_mmiotrace_map().
If these functions are invoked while mmio_trace_array is NULL (e.g. before
initialization or after disabled), accessing tr->array_buffer.buffer will
result in a NULL pointer dereference crash.
Fix this by adding an explicit NULL check for tr at the beginning of
__trace_mmiotrace_rw() and __trace_mmiotrace_map().
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
