Yes, you are right. Thanks.

Well no, but I believe that I get the buffer of length equal to
PAGE_SIZE anyway. Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt says so on line
179.

OK. Do you think this would be sufficient comment?:

/*
 * Check value: baud_base does not make sense to be set below 9600
 * and since uartclock = (baud_base * 16) it has to be equal or greater than
 * 9600 * 16 = 153600.
 */

PATCHv2 follows.
