tracing: kdb: Fix ftdump to not sleep

[ Upstream commit 31b265b3baaf55f209229888b7ffea523ddab366 ]

As reported back in 2016-11 [1], the "ftdump" kdb command triggers a
BUG for "sleeping function called from invalid context".

kdb's "ftdump" command wants to call ring_buffer_read_prepare() in
atomic context.  A very simple solution for this is to add allocation
flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare() so kdb can call it without
triggering the allocation error.  This patch does that.

Note that in the original email thread about this, it was suggested
that perhaps the solution for kdb was to either preallocate the buffer
ahead of time or create our own iterator.  I'm hoping that this
alternative of adding allocation flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare()
can be considered since it means I don't need to duplicate more of the
core trace code into "trace_kdb.c" (for either creating my own
iterator or re-preparing a ring allocator whose memory was already
allocated).

NOTE: another option for kdb is to actually figure out how to make it
reuse the existing ftrace_dump() function and totally eliminate the
duplication.  This sounds very appealing and actually works (the "sr
z" command can be seen to properly dump the ftrace buffer).  The
downside here is that ftrace_dump() fully consumes the trace buffer.
Unless that is changed I'd rather not use it because it means "ftdump
| grep xyz" won't be very useful to search the ftrace buffer since it
will throw away the whole trace on the first grep.  A future patch to
dump only the last few lines of the buffer will also be hard to
implement.
