Chen Lin 8a96c0288d ring-buffer: Do not swap cpu_buffer during resize process
When ring_buffer_swap_cpu was called during resize process,
the cpu buffer was swapped in the middle, resulting in incorrect state.
Continuing to run in the wrong state will result in oops.

This issue can be easily reproduced using the following two scripts:
/tmp # cat test1.sh
//#! /bin/sh
for i in `seq 0 100000`
do
         echo 2000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
         sleep 0.5
         echo 5000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
         sleep 0.5
done
/tmp # cat test2.sh
//#! /bin/sh
for i in `seq 0 100000`
do
        echo irqsoff > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
        sleep 1
        echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
        sleep 1
done
/tmp # ./test1.sh &
/tmp # ./test2.sh &

A typical oops log is as follows, sometimes with other different oops logs.
