[PATCH 3/4] tracing: convert ftrace_regex_write to use copy_word_from_user

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Feb 25 2009 - 15:34:41 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Impact: clean up

This removes the open coded parsing of a word sent in by the user
and replaces it with copy_word_from_user.

Also removes cnt < 0 check since cnt is unsigned.

Also uses (*ppos) += cnt, instead of file->pos += cnt.
