tracing: Fix the race between registering 'snapshot' event trigger and triggering 'snapshot' operation

Traced event can trigger 'snapshot' operation(i.e. calls snapshot_trigger()
or snapshot_count_trigger()) when register_snapshot_trigger() has completed
registration but doesn't allocate buffer for 'snapshot' event trigger.  In
the rare case, 'snapshot' operation always detects the lack of allocated
buffer so make register_snapshot_trigger() allocate buffer first.

trigger-snapshot.tc in kselftest reproduces the issue on slow vm:

cat trace

     <...>-2875  [003] ....   240.460335: tracing_snapshot_instance_cond: *** SNAPSHOT NOT ALLOCATED ***
     <...>-2875  [003] ....   240.460338: tracing_snapshot_instance_cond: *** stopping trace here!   ***
