tracing/rb: Init the CPU mask on allocation
Before commit b32614c03413 ("tracing/rb: Convert to hotplug state machine") the allocated cpumask was initialized to the mask of online or possible CPUs. After the CPU hotplug changes the buffer initialization moved to trace_rb_cpu_prepare() but the cpumask is allocated with alloc_cpumask() and therefor has random content. As a consequence the cpu buffers are not initialized and a later access dereferences a NULL pointer. Use zalloc_cpumask() instead so trace_rb_cpu_prepare() initializes the buffers properly.
