I see what you are doing here in trying to see if a .h file has been
included already, but now you are making an assumption on both the .h
file ordering, and the #ifdef guard for those .h files, which are
something that we almost never remember or even consider when dealing
with .h files files.

Who wants/needs port tracing these days? What types of systems still
rely on that for their primary form of I/O other than some old-school
serial ports?
The MMIO tracing was added because there are crazy out-of-tree SoC
devices out there that "insisted" that they need to hook into the mmio
access path, so they added traceing there under the auspicious of trying
to log all mmio accesses so that they could then override the access
path in the tracehook to do who-knows-what other things. Hopefully you
are not wanting to do the same thing here as well?
And have you addressed all of Peter's previous review comments?

So this is always enabled? No separate config option? Why not?

Why "+"? (I have to ask).

This is -only, which is fine, but your patch doesn't seem to be uniform
here for new files being added in the same patch, right? So documenting
this somewhere (i.e. in the changelog), is essential.

Memory locations are stored in "unsigned long" not "long", right?

Logging kernel memory locations, why? Where is this format documented?
