I am new to making trivial patches and do not make some
for a few type of warnings.
This is one of them as I am not fully certain that it is
as easy as this.
The replacing of 'S_IWUSR | S_IRUGO' with '0644' seems
simple enough.
However the adding of '_RW' to '__ATTR' to make '__ATTR_RW'
I saw in a reply to a patch and am not sure that it would
be relevant in this case.
I also made a previous patch adding spaces around '|' and
want to know if just replacing 'S_IWUSR|S_IRUGO' with
'0644' in one shot would be acceptable since my being new
and not fixing just one type of warning per patch.
Seems straight forward but I have spammed other peoples
email and the mailing list enough with improper patches.
