Probably just make them user writeable. I guess this was in the original code too, but it's just more obvious now that they're grouped together.
Is it possible to change (group) ownership of these attribute files using udev rules? Ideally, users in the group that has group ownership on the /dev/comedi* files should be able to modify the read_buffer_kb and write_buffer_kb attribute files as well, but only super-users should be able to modify the max_read_buffer_kb and max_write_buffer_kb files.
