Add a list to store allocated etr_buf.
The byte-cntr functionality requires two etr_buf to receive trace data.
The active etr_buf collects the trace data from source device, while the
byte-cntr reading function accesses the deactivated etr_buf after is
has been filled and synced, transferring data to the userspace.

Potential simplification:-
do you need both reading_node here and reading in the etr_buf_node?
reading_node handles the logic for which buffer is being read, while
is_free handles the empty/full logic - reading seems unneeded?

Yes, you are right. I checked the usage of reading. It can be replaced
by reading_node in switch function.
I will simplify this patch in next version.
