Don't use "bit", use 1/0/y/n/Y/N as the kernel will parse all of that
for you with the kstrtobool() which was created just for this type of
sysfs file.

You all really should be using an attribute group and the is_visible()
callback to handle all of this for you automatically.

But that's a separate issue than this specific patch.

So this is a userspace visable change with regards to kobject events?

Are you sure that is ok?
