tracing: Reset last-boot buffers when reading out all cpu buffers
Reset the last-boot ring buffers when read() reads out all cpu
buffers through trace_pipe/trace_pipe_raw. This prevents ftrace to
unwind ring buffer read pointer next boot.
Note that this resets only when all per-cpu buffers are empty, and
read via read(2) syscall. For example, if you read only one of the
per-cpu trace_pipe, it does not reset it. Also, reading buffer by
splice(2) syscall does not reset because some data in the reader
(the last) page.
