[PATCH] PCI: sysfs: Update ROM to include default owner write access

From: Alex Williamson
Date: Wed Jan 05 2011 - 12:26:48 EST


The PCI sysfs ROM interface requires an enabling write to access
the ROM image, but the default file mode is 0400. The original
proposed patch adding sysfs ROM support was a true read-only
interface, with the enabling bit coming in as a feature request.
I suspect it was simply an oversight that the file mode didn't
get updated to match the API.
