Work around a bug in sysfsutils -- before writing, it checks whether the
content is already the same in the file. It does _not_ check whether the
size of the content is the same, meaning that zero-size files never get
anything written to. While it'll be fixed in sysfsutils-1.3.0, work around
this bug nonetheless.
