More fixes for 6.8

- Fix a false positive kmemleak on saved cmdlines
  Now that the saved_cmdlines structure is allocated via alloc_page()
  and not via kmalloc() it has become invisible to kmemleak.
  The allocation done to one of its pointers was flagged as a
  dangling allocation leak. Make kmemleak aware of this allocation
  and free.

- Fix synthetic event dynamic strings.
  A update that cleaned up the synthetic event code removed the
  return value of trace_string(), and had it return zero instead
  of the length, causing dynamic strings in the synthetic event
  to always have zero size.

- Clean up documentation and header files for seq_buf
