tracing/ksym_tracer: fix write operation of ksym_trace_filter

This patch fix 2 bugs:
- fix the return value of ksym_trace_filter_write() when we want to
  clear symbol in ksym_trace_filter file
  for example:
  # echo global_trace:rw- > /debug/tracing/ksym_trace_filter
  # echo global_trace:--- > /debug/tracing/ksym_trace_filter
  -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
  # cat /debug/tracing/ksym_trace_filter
  #
  We want to clear 'global_trace' in ksym_trace_filter, it complain
  with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful

- the "r--" access types is not allowed, but ksym_trace_filter file think
  it OK
  for example:
  # echo ksym_tracer_mutex:r-- > ksym_trace_filter
  -bash: echo: write error: Resource temporarily unavailable
  # dmesg
  ksym_tracer request failed. Try again later!!

  The error occur at register_kernel_hw_breakpoint(), but It's should
  at access types parser
