There is an ever so slightly difference in how these all work after
the change. They will return -EBUSY rather than holding then returning
a valid value under the circumstances of two reads coming through
sysfs at the same time. This is a pretty obscure case so
I think we are OK with this.
Actually pending responses to this, I'm going to back out the other
two similar patches. Just goes to show, that if you show someone
something 3 times they might finally notice the issue!
