From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <[email protected]> It's been 11 years since the ring_buffer_size() function was updated to use the nr_pages from the buffer->buffers[cpu] structure instead of using the buffer->nr_pages that no longer exists.
The comment in the code is more of what a change log should have and is pretty much useless for development. It's saying how things worked back in 2012 that bares no purpose on today's code. Remove it.
