tracing: Do not allow mmap() of persistent ring buffer

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tracing: Do not allow mmap() of persistent ring buffer

When trying to mmap a trace instance buffer that is attached to reserve_mem, it would crash:

The reason was that the code that maps the ring buffer pages to user space has:

page = virt_to_page((void *)cpu_buffer->subbuf_ids[s]);

And uses that in:

vm_insert_pages(vma, vma->vm_start, pages, &nr_pages);

But virt_to_page() does not work with vmap()'d memory which is what the persistent ring buffer has. It is rather trivial to allow this, but for now just disable mmap() of instances that have their ring buffer from the reserve_mem option.

If an mmap() is performed on a persistent buffer it will return -ENODEV just like it would if the .mmap field wasn't defined in the file_operations structure.
