ring-buffer: Check if absolute timestamp goes backwards

The check_buffer() which checks the timestamps of the ring buffer
sub-buffer page, when enabled, only checks if the adding of deltas of the
events from the last absolute timestamp or the timestamp of the sub-buffer
page adds up to the current event.

What it does not check is if the absolute timestamp causes the time of the
events to go backwards, as that can cause issues elsewhere.

Test for the timestamp going backwards too.

This also fixes a slight issue where if the warning triggers at boot up
(because of the resetting of the tsc), it will disable all further checks,
even those that are after boot Have it continue checking if the warning
was ignored during boot up.
