Subject: [PATCH] tracing/snapshot: Resize spare buffer if size changed

Current snapshot implementation swaps two ring_buffers even though their
sizes are different from each other, that can cause an inconsistency
between the contents of buffer_size_kb file and the current buffer size.

For example:

  # cat buffer_size_kb
  7 (expanded: 1408)
  # echo 1 > events/enable
  # grep bytes per_cpu/cpu0/stats
  bytes: 1441020
  # echo 1 > snapshot             // current:1408, spare:1408
  # echo 123 > buffer_size_kb     // current:123,  spare:1408
  # echo 1 > snapshot             // current:1408, spare:123
  # grep bytes per_cpu/cpu0/stats
  bytes: 1443700
  # cat buffer_size_kb
  123                             // != current:1408

And also, a similar per-cpu case hits the following WARNING:

Reproducer:

  # echo 1 > per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
  # echo 123 > buffer_size_kb
  # echo 1 > per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot

This patch adds resize_buffer_duplicate_size() to check if there is a
difference between current/spare buffer sizes and resize a spare buffer
if necessary.
