For instance, the buffer becomes empty in the middle:

   +----------------------------+
   |$$$$$$$|            |$$$$$$$|
   +----------------------------+
   ` base  `wptr        `limit

In this case, the trace unit stops when it reaches the limit.
Meanwhile, the tool might have already read out the old trace data so
we will get some free space, thus no need to set TRUNCATED flag.
