From 7afb42226a8eaa9ae3f6b9917ffb16902358e749 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Sun, 9 Mar 2008 20:21:53 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] libata: don't allow sysfs read access to force param Buffer for force param is deallocated after initialization, so trying to read it via sysfs results in oops. Don't allow read access to the param node. Spotted by Eric Sesterhenn.
