trace: fix security issues
After getting a report of 3.2.3's xenmon crashing Xen (as it turned
out this was because c/s 17000 was backported to that tree without
also applying c/s 17515), I figured that the hypervisor shouldn't rely
on any specific state of the actual trace buffer (as it is shared
writable with Dom0)
[GWD: Volatile quantifiers have been taken out and moved to another
patch]
To make clear what purpose specific variables have and/or where they
got loaded from, the patch also changes the type of some of them to be
explicitly u32/s32, and removes pointless assertions (like checking an
unsigned variable to be >= 0).
I also took the prototype adjustment of __trace_var() as an
opportunity to simplify the TRACE_xD() macros. Similar simplification
could be done on the (quite numerous) direct callers of the function.
