From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <[email protected]>

The parse_actions() function uses 'len = str_has_prefix()' to test which
action is in the string being parsed. But then it goes and repeats the
logic for each different action. This logic can be simplified and
duplicate code can be removed as 'len' contains the length of the found
prefix which should be used for all actions.

If you want Link to be formally a tag, you should drop the following
blank line.

The repeating check for ( might be moved out as well after this like

if (str[len] != '(') {
// not sure if you need data to be assigned here as well
ret = -EINVAL;
...
}

The link is for humans not for parsers.

Not sure how that makes it any better. It adds more code. I could start
with checking the "on" before checking for "match", "max" and "change", but
that just makes it more complex.
