Ug, found a memory leak in instance deletion. Missed freeing the
snapshot buffer.

    tracing: Fix memory leak on instance deletion
    
    When an instance is created, it also gets a snapshot ring buffer
    allocated (with minimum of pages). But when it is deleted the snapshot
    buffer is not. There was a helper function added to match the allocation
    of these ring buffers to a way to free them, but it wasn't used by
    the deletion of an instance. Using that helper function solves this
    memory leak.
