tracing: Update subbuffer with kilobytes not page order
Using page order for deciding what the size of the ring buffer sub buffers are is exposing a bit too much of the implementation. Although the sub buffers are only allocated in orders of pages, allow the user to specify the minimum size of each sub-buffer via kilobytes like they can with the buffer size itself. If the user specifies 3 via: echo 3 > buffer_subbuf_size_kb Then the sub-buffer size will round up to 4kb (on a 4kb page size system). If they specify: echo 6 > buffer_subbuf_size_kb The sub-buffer size will become 8kb. and so on.
