Subject: clocksource: fix permissions for available_clocksource
From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>
File permissions for
/sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource are 600
which allows write access. But this is in fact a read only file. So change
permissions to 400.
