Well, this doesn't seem quite right.

Besides, if count == 11, there we'll write beyond ascii_value[], right?

What about the appended patch instead of your original one?

From: mark gross <markgross@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: PM: Correct PM QOS's user mode interface to work with ascii input per

What is in the kernel docs.  Writing a string to the ABI from user mode
comes in 2 flavors.  One with and one without a '\n' at the end.  This
change accepts both.

# echo 0x12345678 > /dev/cpu_dma_latency

and

# echo -n 0x12345678 > /dev/cpu_dma_latency

now both work.
