tracing: Replace kmap with copy_from_user() in trace_marker writing
Instead of using get_user_pages_fast() and kmap_atomic() when writing to the trace_marker file, just allocate enough space on the ring buffer directly, and write into it via copy_from_user(). Writing into the trace_marker file use to allocate a temporary buffer to perform the copy_from_user(), as we didn't want to write into the ring buffer if the copy failed. But as a trace_marker write is suppose to be extremely fast, and allocating memory causes other tracepoints to trigger, Peter Zijlstra suggested using get_user_pages_fast() and kmap_atomic() to keep the user space pages in memory and reading it directly. But Henrik Austad had issues with this because it required taking the mm->mmap_sem and causing long delays with the write. Instead, just allocate the space in the ring buffer and use copy_from_user() directly. If it faults, return -EFAULT and write "<faulted>" into the ring buffer.
