tracing/osnoise: Split out per-cpu variable resets

Reset per-cpu state every time we stop a kthread or detach an fd, rather
than assume everything gets cleaned up properly, and avoiding the need
to explicitly zero individual fields.

[Severity: High]
Does this unconditionally call osn_reset_cpu() even when the file descriptor
was already detached?

If tracing is stopped and the active file descriptor is detached, userspace
can start a new tracing session. This sets osn_var->fdd to a new fdd and arms
a new hrtimer on the CPU.

If userspace subsequently closes the old, detached file descriptor,
timerlat_fd_release() executes, skips timerlat_fd_detach(), and
unconditionally calls osn_reset_cpu().

Could this trigger a WARN_ON(osn->fdd) and zero out the tlat->zero and
osn->zero structs of the newly active session, corrupting its queued hrtimer
and potentially causing memory corruption or a kernel panic?
