tracing: fix ref count in splice pages

The pages allocated for the splice binary buffer did not initialize
the ref count correctly. This caused pages not to be freed and causes
a drastic memory leak.

Thanks to logdev I was able to trace the tracer to find where the leak
was.

[ Impact: stop memory leak when using splice ]
