I was mistaken about the purpose of the comment and the check. I
thought it had to do with *this* function, and this function doesn't
add a newline, and there's no obvious connection with PAGE_SIZE.
But looking closer, I think the "extra room for a newline" is really
to make sure that *driver_override_show()* can add a newline and have
it still fit within the PAGE_SIZE sysfs limit.
Most driver_override_*() functions have the same comment, so maybe
this was obvious to everybody except me :) I do see that spi.c adds
"when displaying value" at the end, which helps a lot.
Sorry for the wild goose chase.
