From: Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com>

With CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, I observed an unallocated memory access in
function_graph trace. It appears we find a small size entry in ring buffer,
but we access it as a big size entry. The access overflows the page size
and touches an unallocated page.

With the configuration: CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y and Shaohua's patch:

[PATCH]x86: make spurious_fault check correct pte bit

Function call graph trace with the following will trigger a page fault.

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/

# cat per_cpu/cpu1/trace_pipe_raw > /dev/null

---[ end trace a6877bb92ccb36bb ]---

The root cause is that ring_buffer_read_page() may read out of page
boundary, because the boundary checking is done after reading. This is
fixed via doing boundary checking before reading.
