Sorry, but patch 2 here, doing the sysfs_emit() is not allowed.  That
user has been banned from lore.kernel.org for sending patches through a
random gmail account with no verification that they really are from ZTE
at all.  Until we get proof from ZTE that this developer really is who
they say they are, we can't take patches from them.

Please do not take any future patches from anyone sending from gmail.com
that purports to be from ZTE until this is worked out.

Also, it's not a "fix" at all, and shouldn't be needed for 6.1-final at
all.

I'll just drop that patch and regenerate this on my end to get the 3
other fixes merged in here properly.

thanks,

greg k-h
