Initialize the allocated bin_attribute structure, otherwise unused fields are pointing to random places. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c 1.16 vs edited = --- 1.16/drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c2005-01-06 21:30:29 +01:00 +++ edited/drivers/pci/pci-

[PATCH] sysfs: export the vfs release call of binary attribute
