The snapshot buffer is to mimic the main buffer so that when a snapshot is needed, the snapshot and main buffer are swapped. When the snapshot buffer is allocated, it is set to the minimal size that the ring buffer may be at and still functional. When it is allocated it becomes the same size as the main ring buffer, and when the main ring buffer changes in size, it should do. Currently, the resize only updates the snapshot buffer if it's used by the current tracer (ie. the preemptirqsoff tracer). But it needs to be updated anytime it is allocated. When changing the size of the main buffer, instead of looking to see if the current tracer is utilizing the snapshot buffer, just check if it is allocated to know if it should be updated or not. Also fix typo in comment just above the code change.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
