tracing/mm: don't trace kmem_cache_free on offline cpus

Browse Source 
Since tracepoints use RCU for protection, they must not be called on
offline cpus.  trace_kmem_cache_free can be called on an offline cpu in
this scenario caught by LOCKDEP:

    ===============================
    [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
    4.1.0-rc1+ #9 Not tainted
    -------------------------------
    include/trace/events/kmem.h:148 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

    other info that might help us debug this:

    RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
    rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
    no locks held by swapper/1/0.

    stack backtrace:
    CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 4.1.0-rc1+ #9
    Call Trace:

Fix this by converting kmem_cache_free trace point into
TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION where condition is cpu_online(smp_processor_id())
