The permissions on this debugfs file are 0444 so it can't be written to. And writing to the file hasn't done anything since commit 6e9548cdb30e ("ASoC: SOF: Convert the generic IPC flood test into SOF client"). Delete the write function. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I haven't tested this patch and there is a risk that it breaks some of the test scripts. Another option would be to just make it a dummy function that does { return count; }. But I thought I would try the better option first.
