tracing: Limit trace_seq size to just 8K and not depend on architecture PAGE_SIZE
The trace_seq buffer is used to print out entire events. It's typically set to PAGE_SIZE * 2 as there's some events that can be quite large. As a side effect, writes to trace_marker is limited by both the size of the trace_seq buffer as well as the ring buffer's sub-buffer size (which is a power of PAGE_SIZE). By limiting the trace_seq size, it also limits the size of the largest string written to trace_marker. trace_seq does not need to be dependent on PAGE_SIZE like the ring buffer sub-buffers need to be. Hard code it to 8K which is PAGE_SIZE * 2 on most architectures. This will also limit the size of trace_marker on those architectures with greater than 4K PAGE_SIZE.
