Subject: [PATCH] PM: QOS: Always use "kstrtos32_from_user()" in cpu_latency_qos_write()

In cpu_latency_qos_write, there is a judgment on whether the count
value is equal to sizeof(s32). This means that when user write 100~999,
it would get error value because it would call the "copy_from_user()"
instead of "kstrtos32".
Just like:

 # echo 500 > /dev/cpu_dma_latency
[T4893] write: qos value=170930229
[T4893] write: count value=4

[T4893] write: qos value=170930226
[T4893] write: count value=4

To prevent this happening, delete the "copy_from_user()" and
always use "kstrtos32_from_user()".
