tracing: add trace_bprintk()

Impact: add a generic printk() for tracing, like trace_printk()

trace_bprintk() uses the infrastructure to record events on ring_buffer.

[ fweisbec@gmail.com: ported to latest -tip, made it work if
  !CONFIG_MODULES, never free the format strings from modules
  because we can't keep track of them and conditionnaly create
  the ftrace format strings section (reported by Steven Rostedt) ]
