ring-buffer: Add interface for configuring trace sub buffer size

The trace ring buffer sub page size can be configured, per trace
instance. A new ftrace file "buffer_subbuf_order" is added to get and
set the size of the ring buffer sub page for current trace instance.
The size must be an order of system page size, that's why the new
interface works with system page order, instead of absolute page size:
0 means the ring buffer sub page is equal to 1 system page and so
forth:
0 - 1 system page
1 - 2 system pages
2 - 4 system pages
...
The ring buffer sub page size is limited between 1 and 128 system
pages. The default value is 1 system page.
New ring buffer APIs are introduced:
 ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set()
 ring_buffer_subbuf_order_get()
 ring_buffer_subbuf_size_get()
