tracing: Fix race with max_tr and changing tracers

There's a race condition between the setting of a new tracer and
the update of the max trace buffers (the swap). When a new tracer
is added, it sets current_trace to nop_trace before disabling
the old tracer. At this moment, if the old tracer uses update_max_tr(),
the update may trigger the warning against !current_trace->use_max-tr,
as nop_trace doesn't have that set.

As update_max_tr() requires that interrupts be disabled, we can
add a check to see if current_trace == nop_trace and bail if it
does. Then when disabling the current_trace, set it to nop_trace
and run synchronize_sched(). This will make sure all calls to
update_max_tr() have completed (it was called with interrupts disabled).

As a clean up, this commit also removes shrinking and recreating
the max_tr buffer if the old and new tracers both have use_max_tr set.
The old way use to always shrink the buffer, and then expand it
for the next tracer. This is a waste of time.
