From 7c0ff870d1ed287504a61ed865f3d728c757436b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Wed, 3 Feb 2010 23:13:24 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: sysfs_sd_setattr set iattrs unconditionally There is currently a bug in sysfs_sd_setattr inherited from sysfs_setattr in 2.6.32 where the first time we set the attributes on a sysfs file we allocate backing store but do not set the backing store attributes. Resulting in overly restrictive permissions on sysfs files. The fix is to simply modify the code so that it always executes when we update the sysfs attributes, as we did in 2.6.31 and earlier.
