Steven Rostedt (Google) 40fc60e36c trace_seq: Increase the buffer size to almost two pages
Now that trace_marker can hold more than 1KB string, and can write as much
as the ring buffer can hold, the trace_seq is not big enough to hold
writes:

 ~# a="1234567890"
 ~# cnt=4080
 ~# s=""
 ~# while [ $cnt -gt 10 ]; do
 ~#	s="${s}${a}"
 ~#	cnt=$((cnt-10))
 ~# done
 ~# echo $s > trace_marker
 ~# cat trace
 # tracer: nop
 #
 # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 2/2   #P:8
 #
 #                                _-----=> irqs-off/BH-disabled
 #                               / _----=> need-resched
 #                              | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
 #                              || / _--=> preempt-depth
 #                              ||| / _-=> migrate-disable
 #                              |||| /     delay
 #           TASK-PID     CPU#  |||||  TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION

            <...>-860     [002] .....   105.543465: tracing_mark_write[LINE TOO BIG]
            <...>-860     [002] .....   105.543496: tracing_mark_write: 789012345678901234567890

By increasing the trace_seq buffer to almost two pages, it can now print
out the first line.

This also subtracts the rest of the trace_seq fields from the buffer, so
that the entire trace_seq is now PAGE_SIZE aligned.
