Currently the size of one sub buffer page is global for all buffers and it
is hard coded to one system page. The patch set introduces configurable
ring buffer sub page size, per ring buffer. A new user space interface is
introduced, which allows to change the sub page size of the ftrace buffer, per
ftrace instance.
v4 changes:
- Do not change the sub buffer size of the temp event buffer per CPU,
trace_buffered_event. That size if fixed to one system page.
v3 changes:
- Fixed ring buffer readers and writers to work with custom sub buffer page
size.
v2 changes:
- Split code refactoring in a separate patch.
- Changed the logic to work with order of system pages, instead of page
size.
- Fix freeing of the allocated pages, to take into account the actual order.
- Code clean ups.
- Bug fixes.
