------------------------------------------------------
Subject: sysdev: fix prototype for memory_sysdev_class show/store functions
From: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx>

The function prototype mismatches in call stack:

                [<ffffffff81494268>] print_block_size+0x58/0x60
                [<ffffffff81487e3f>] sysdev_class_show+0x1f/0x30
                [<ffffffff811d629b>] sysfs_read_file+0xcb/0x1f0
                [<ffffffff81176328>] vfs_read+0xc8/0x180

Due to prototype mismatch, print_block_size() will sprintf() into
*attribute instead of *buf, hence user space will read the initial
zeros from *buf:
	$ hexdump /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
	0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000
	0000008

After patch:
	cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
	0x8000000

This complements commits c29af9636 and 4a0b2b4dbe.
