[PATCH] tracing: Reject tracefs buffer size values that overflow bytes

[Sam Moelius <sam.moelius@trailofbits.com>]

From: Samuel Moelius <sam.moelius@trailofbits.com>

`tracing_entries_write()` accepts a `buffer_size_kb` value as
`unsigned long`, checks only for zero, then shifts left by 10. On
64-bit, writing `18014398509481984` KB wraps the byte count to zero
and the ring buffer resize path accepts it as a tiny buffer instead
of rejecting an impossible huge size.

The fix also adds the same pre-scale overflow check to
`buffer_subbuf_size_write()`.
