And the "config=" part could be dropped as well, but now userspace probably requires it, that is sad. thanks, greg k-h

snprintf() returns the number of bytes that would be written, which may be greater than the the actual length to be written. show() methods should return the number of bytes printed into the buffer. This is the return value of scnprintf(). Signed-off-by: Chen Zhou <chenzhou10@huawei.com> --- arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0-pmu.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
