tracing: Disable buffer switching when starting or stopping trace

When the trace iterator is read, tracing_start() and tracing_stop()
is called to stop tracing while the iterator is processing the trace
output.

These functions disable both the standard buffer and the max latency
buffer. But if the wakeup tracer is running, it can switch these
buffers between the two disables:

  buffer = global_trace.buffer;
  if (buffer)
      ring_buffer_record_disable(buffer);

      <<<--------- swap happens here

  buffer = max_tr.buffer;
  if (buffer)
      ring_buffer_record_disable(buffer);

What happens is that we disabled the same buffer twice. On tracing_start()
we can enable the same buffer twice. All ring_buffer_record_disable()
must be matched with a ring_buffer_record_enable() or the buffer
can be disable permanently, or enable prematurely, and cause a bug
where a reset happens while a trace is commiting.

This patch protects these two by taking the ftrace_max_lock to prevent
a switch from occurring.

Found with Li Zefan's ftrace_stress_test.
