tracing: Only allow trace_array_printk() to be used by instances
To prevent default "trace_printks()" from spamming the top level tracing ring buffer, only allow trace instances to use trace_array_printk() (which can be used without the trace_printk() start up warning). Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
