ring-buffer: Remove useless unused tracing_off_permanent() 

The tracing_off_permanent() call is a way to disable all ring_buffers.
Nothing uses it and nothing should use it, as tracing_off() and
friends are better, as they disable the ring buffers related to
tracing. The tracing_off_permanent() even disabled non tracing
ring buffers. This is a bit drastic, and was added to handle NMIs
doing outputs that could corrupt the ring buffer when only tracing
used them. It is now obsolete and adds a little overhead, it should
be removed.

/*
* A fast way to enable or disable all ring buffers is to
* call tracing_on or tracing_off. Turning off the ring buffers
* prevents all ring buffers from being recorded to.
* Turning this switch on, makes it OK to write to the
* ring buffer, if the ring buffer is enabled itself.
*
* There's three layers that must be on in order to write
* to the ring buffer.
*
* 1) This global flag must be set.
* 2) The ring buffer must be enabled for recording.
* 3) The per cpu buffer must be enabled for recording.
*
* In case of an anomaly, this global flag has a bit set that
* will permantly disable all ring buffers.
