Subject: [for-next][PATCH 18/25] ring-buffer: Handle resize in early boot up

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@...dmis.org>

With the new command line option that allows trace event triggers to be
added at boot, the "snapshot" trigger will allocate the snapshot buffer
very early, when interrupts can not be enabled. Allocating the ring buffer
is not the problem, but it also resizes it, which is, as the resize code
does synchronization that can not be preformed at early boot.

To handle this, first change the raw_spin_lock_irq() in rb_insert_pages()
to raw_spin_lock_irqsave(), such that the unlocking of that spin lock will
not enable interrupts.

Next, where it calls schedule_work_on(), disable migration and check if
the CPU to update is the current CPU, and if so, perform the work
directly, otherwise re-enable migration and call the schedule_work_on() to
the CPU that is being updated. The rb_insert_pages() just needs to be run
on the CPU that it is updating, and does not need preemption nor
interrupts disabled when calling it.
