Mukesh Ojha 8843e06f67 ring-buffer: Handle race between rb_move_tail and rb_check_pages
It seems a data race between ring_buffer writing and integrity check.
That is, RB_FLAG of head_page is been updating, while at same time
RB_FLAG was cleared when doing integrity check rb_check_pages():

  rb_check_pages()            rb_handle_head_page():
  --------                    --------
  rb_head_page_deactivate()
                              rb_head_page_set_normal()
  rb_head_page_activate()

We do intergrity test of the list to check if the list is corrupted and
it is still worth doing it. So, let's refactor rb_check_pages() such that
we no longer clear and set flag during the list sanity checking.

[1] and [2] are the test to reproduce and the crash report respectively.

1:
``` read_trace.sh
  while true;
  do
    # the "trace" file is closed after read
    head -1 /sys/kernel/tracing/trace > /dev/null
  done
```
``` repro.sh
  sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_warn=1
  # function tracer will writing enough data into ring_buffer
  echo function > /sys/kernel/tracing/current_tracer
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
  ./read_trace.sh &
