tracing: Reduce latency and remove percpu trace_seq
__print_flags() and __print_symbolic() use percpu trace_seq:
1) Its memory is allocated at compile time, it wastes memory if we don't use tracing.
2) It is percpu data and it wastes more memory for multi-cpus system.
3) It disables preemption when it executes its core routine
"trace_seq_printf(s, "%s: ", #call);" and introduces latency.
So we move this trace_seq to struct trace_iterator.
