ring-buffer: Ensure proper resetting of atomic variables in ring_buffer_reset_online_cpus
In ring_buffer_reset_online_cpus, the buffer_size_kb write operation
may permanently fail if the cpu_online_mask changes between two
for_each_online_buffer_cpu loops. The number of increases and decreases
on both cpu_buffer->resize_disabled and cpu_buffer->record_disabled may be
inconsistent, causing some CPUs to have non-zero values for these atomic
variables after the function returns.
This issue can be reproduced by "echo 0 > trace" while hotplugging cpu.
After reproducing success, we can find out buffer_size_kb will not be
functional anymore.
To prevent leaving 'resize_disabled' and 'record_disabled' non-zero after
ring_buffer_reset_online_cpus returns, we ensure that each atomic variable
has been set up before atomic_sub() to it.
