Subject: [PATCH v5 08/15] ring-buffer: Make sure the spare sub buffer used for reads has same
 size

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

Now that the ring buffer specifies the size of its sub buffers, they all
need to be the same size. When doing a read, a swap is done with a spare
page. Make sure they are the same size before doing the swap, otherwise
the read will fail.
