Commit 1a149d7d ("ring-buffer: Rewrite trace_recursive_(un)lock() to be
simpler") replaced the context level recursion checks with a simple counter.
This would prevent the ring buffer code from recursively calling itself more
than the max number of contexts that exist (Normal, softirq, irq, nmi). But
this change caused a lockup in a specific case, which was during suspend and
resume using a global clock. Adding a stack dump to see where this occurred,
the issue was in the trace global clock itself:

  trace_buffer_lock_reserve+0x1c/0x50
  __trace_graph_entry+0x2d/0x90
  trace_graph_entry+0xe8/0x200
  prepare_ftrace_return+0x69/0xc0
  ftrace_graph_caller+0x78/0xa8
  queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x5/0x1d0
  trace_clock_global+0xb0/0xc0
  ring_buffer_lock_reserve+0xf9/0x390

The function graph tracer traced queued_spin_lock_slowpath that was called
by trace_clock_global. This pointed out that the trace_clock_global() is not
reentrant, as it takes a spin lock. It depended on the ring buffer recursive
lock from letting that happen.

By removing the context detection and adding just a max number of allowable
recursions, it allowed the trace_clock_global() to be entered again and try
to retake the spinlock it already held, causing a deadlock.
