From 5a501b3011095c9afb396cdade5be8db359df977 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2009 15:23:19 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Staging: rt2870: disable root hack for reading files We are now using credentials, so just blindly setting the fsuid and fsguid isn't acceptable. All this means is that the config file needs to be readable by the driver thread, not a big deal.
