[PATCH 2/3] Fix strstrip() abuse in elv_iosched_store()

[KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com>]

elv_iosched_store() ignore the return value of strstrip().
it makes small inconsistent behavior.

This patch fixes it.


 <before>
 ====================================
 # cd /sys/block/{blockdev}/queue

 case1:
 # echo "anticipatory" > scheduler
 # cat scheduler
 noop [anticipatory] deadline cfq

 case2:
 # echo "anticipatory " > scheduler
 # cat scheduler
 noop [anticipatory] deadline cfq

 case3:
 # echo " anticipatory" > scheduler
 bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

 <after>
 ====================================
 # cd /sys/block/{blockdev}/queue

 case1:
 # echo "anticipatory" > scheduler
 # cat scheduler
 noop [anticipatory] deadline cfq

 case2:
 # echo "anticipatory " > scheduler
 # cat scheduler
 noop [anticipatory] deadline cfq

 case3:
 # echo " anticipatory" > scheduler
 noop [anticipatory] deadline cfq
