ftrace: Allow stealing pages from pipe buffer
Use generic steal operation on pipe buffer to allow stealing ring buffer's read page from pipe buffer. Note that this could reduce the performance of splice on the splice_write side operation without affinity setting. Since the ring buffer's read pages are allocated on the tracing-node, but the splice user does not always execute splice write side operation on the same node. In this case, the page will be accessed from the another node. Thus, it is strongly recommended to assign the splicing thread to corresponding node.
