[PATCH 0/2] tracing: add ring-buffer memory usage statistics

Report the memory consumed by the tracing ring buffers, rather than the
usable data capacity exposed by buffer_size_kb. Android low-memory
diagnostics need this to attribute the memory used by tracing when
calculating lost RAM.

The buffers can be spread across the global trace array, dynamically
created instances, and snapshot buffers. Userspace currently has to
discover and sum every instance, and snapshot memory is not exposed by
the per-instance totals.

Patch 1 adds:

  /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_stats/memory_usage_kb

reporting:

  buffers: ...
  snapshot_buffers: ...

covering the global trace array and all instances across all CPUs.

Patch 2 adds the per-CPU view under
trace_stats/per_cpu/cpuN/memory_usage_kb.

The values account for the full pages backing the data sub-buffers and
reader page, plus the cached read page and mmap metadata page when
present. Slab-allocated ring-buffer metadata is not included.
