ring-buffer: Add unlikelys to make fast path the default
[ Upstream commit

I was running the trace_event benchmark and noticed that the times
to record a trace_event was all over the place. I looked at the assembly
of the ring_buffer_lock_reserver() and saw this:
<ring_buffer_lock_reserve>:
31 c0 xor %eax,%eax

The arrow is the fast path.
After adding the unlikely's, the fast path looks a bit better:
