ring-buffer: speed up buffer resets by avoiding synchronize_rcu for each CPU

Browse Source 
On a 144 thread system, `perf ftrace` takes about 20 seconds to start
up, due to calling synchronize_rcu() for each CPU.

  cat /proc/108560/stack
    0xc0003e7eb336f470
    __switch_to+0x2e0/0x480
    __wait_rcu_gp+0x20c/0x220
    synchronize_rcu+0x9c/0xc0
    ring_buffer_reset_cpu+0x88/0x2e0
    tracing_reset_online_cpus+0x84/0xe0
    tracing_open+0x1d4/0x1f0

On a system with 10x more threads, it starts to become an annoyance.

Batch these up so we disable all the per-cpu buffers first, then
synchronize_rcu() once, then reset each of the buffers. This brings
the time down to about 0.5s.
