Subject: [PATCH 3/3] tracing: Prevent buffer overwrite disabled for latency tracers

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@...dmis.org>

The latency tracers require the buffers to be in overwrite mode,
otherwise they get screwed up. Force the buffers to stay in overwrite
mode when latency tracers are enabled.

Added a flag_changed() method to the tracer structure to allow
the tracers to see what flags are being changed, and also be able
to prevent the change from happing.
