Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix tracing_mark_raw_write() to use buf and not ubuf

The fix to use a per CPU buffer to read user space tested only the writes
to trace_marker. But it appears that the selftests are missing tests to
the trace_maker_raw file. The trace_maker_raw file is used by applications
that writes data structures and not strings into the file, and the tools
read the raw ring buffer to process the structures it writes.

The fix that reads the per CPU buffers passes the new per CPU buffer to
the trace_marker file writes, but the update to the trace_marker_raw write
read the data from user space into the per CPU buffer, but then still used
then passed the user space address to the function that records the data.

Pass in the per CPU buffer and not the user space address.

TODO: Add a test to better test trace_marker_raw.
