tracing: protect trace_printk from recursion

trace_printk can be called from any context, including NMIs.
If this happens, then we must test for for recursion before
grabbing any spinlocks.

This patch prevents trace_printk from being called recursively.

[ Impact: prevent hard lockup in lockdep event tracer ]
