From: Jason Xing <[email protected]>

It doesn't really matter to let the user/admin know what the last too
big value is. Just record how many times this case is triggered.

Also solve the issue where relay_reset() doesn't restore the value.

Store the counter in the per-cpu buffer structure instead of the global
buffer structure. It also solves the previous racy condition because
in terms of the global structure, it is likely to happen when a few of
per-cpu buffers encounter the too big data case.

Remove the printk in relay_close() since kernel module can directly call
relay_dump() as they want.
