    Enabling DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS causes the following
    warning:
    
    In file included from arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:573,
                     from include/linux/uaccess.h:5,
                     from include/linux/highmem.h:7,
                     from include/linux/pagemap.h:10,
                     from fs/debugfs/file.c:18:
    In function 'copy_from_user',
        inlined from 'write_file_bool' at fs/debugfs/file.c:435:
    arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:65: warning: call to
    'copy_from_user_overflow' declared with attribute warning:
    copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct
    
    presumably due to buf_size being signed causing GCC to fail to
    see that buf_size can't become negative.
