Because its simple and easy.

I had not, because I didn't know we had that in-kernel. Looking at that,
using it is a bit of a pain, since it needs the pattern as a C string,
which means I need to strdup() the thing because I can't modify the
original.
That in turn means we need to deal with malloc failure.
Is that all worth it?
