ring_buffer: fix ring_buffer_event_length()
Function ring_buffer_event_length() provides an interface to detect the length of data stored in an entry. However, the length contains offsets depending on the internal usage. This makes it unusable. This patch fixes this and now ring_buffer_event_length() returns the alligned length that has been used in ring_buffer_lock_reserve().
