ring-buffer: Fix crash due to uninitialized new_pages list head
The new_pages list head in the cpu_buffer is not initialized. When adding pages to the ring buffer, if the memory allocation fails in ring_buffer_resize, the clean up handler tries to free up the allocated pages from all the cpu buffers. The panic is caused by referencing the uninitialized new_pages list head. Initializing the new_pages list head in rb_allocate_cpu_buffer fixes this.
