tracing: Fix trace_print_seq()

We will lose something if trace_seq->buffer[0] is 0, because the copy length
is calculated by strlen() in seq_puts(), so using seq_write() instead of
seq_puts().

There have a example:
after reboot:

 # echo kmemtrace > current_tracer
 # echo 0 > options/kmem_minimalistic
 # cat trace
 # tracer: kmemtrace
 #
 #

Nothing is exported, because the first byte of trace_seq->buffer[ ]
is KMEMTRACE_USER_ALLOC.

( the value of KMEMTRACE_USER_ALLOC is zero, seeing
  kmemtrace_print_alloc_user() in kernel/trace/kmemtrace.c)
