[ 70/73] EDAC: Dont give write permission to read-only files

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Srivatsa S. Bhat" <srivatsa.bhat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c8c64d165ccfd2274058ac84e0c680f9b48c4ec1 upstream.

I get the following warning on boot:

------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at drivers/base/core.c:575 device_create_file+0x9a/0xa0()
Hardware name:  -[8737R2A]-
Write permission without 'store'
...
</snip>

Drilling down, this is related to dynamic channel ce_count attribute
files sporting a S_IWUSR mode without a ->store() function. Looking
around, it appears that they aren't supposed to have a ->store()
function. So remove the bogus write permission to get rid of the
warning.
