block: make blktrace use per-cpu buffers for message notes
Currently it uses a single static char array, but that risks being corrupted when multiple users issue message notes at the same time. Make the buffers dynamically allocated when the trace is setup and make them per-cpu instead. The default max message size of 1k is also very large, the interface is mainly for small text notes. So shrink it to 128 bytes. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
