commit f28439db470cca8b6b082239314e9fd10bd39034 upstream.

Tag trace_percpu_buffer as a percpu pointer to resolve warnings
reported by sparse:

  /linux/kernel/trace/trace.c:3218:46:    expected void const [noderef] __percpu *__vpp_verify
  /linux/kernel/trace/trace.c:3218:46:    got struct trace_buffer_struct *
