ring-buffer: Synchronize resizing buffer with reader lock

We got a sudden panic when we reduced the size of the
ringbuffer.

We can reproduce the panic by the following steps:

echo 1 > events/sched/enable
cat trace_pipe > /dev/null &

while ((1))
do
echo 12000 > buffer_size_kb
echo 512 > buffer_size_kb
done

(not more than 5 seconds, panic ...)
