I updated my pci/sysfs branch to include the kfree fix in "PCI/sysfs:
Fix trailing newline handling of resource_alignment_param".
As I mentioned in the v6, I reordered things a bit and dropped
"PCI/sysfs: Only show value when driver_override is not NULL" to avoid
breaking userspace.
It's conceivable that these could break userspace, too, but I think
it's unlikely:
PCI/sysfs: Fix trailing newline handling of resource_alignment_param
PCI/sysfs: Add missing trailing newline to devspec_show()
/sys/bus/pci/resource_alignment is a one-off thing and the previous
behavior was clearly incorrect.
There are six varieties of /sys/.../devspec attributes, and all but
the PCI one already include a trailing newline, so anything that
looked at more than the PCI one would have had to deal with the
inconsistency already.
