This is v3, even if the subject doesn't say so. This is what happens
when you forget to use --reroll-count and try to fix it manually :)

According to the sysfs header file:
"The returned value will replace static permissions defined in
struct attribute or struct bin_attribute."
but this isn't the case, as is_visible is only called on struct attribute
only. This patch introduces a new is_bin_visible() function to implement
the same functionality for binary attributes, and updates documentation
accordingly.
Note that to keep functionality and code similar to that of normal
attributes, the mode is now checked as well to ensure it contains only
read/write permissions or SYSFS_PREALLOC.
