[15/35] PCI: return correct value when writing to the "reset" attribute

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Mar 25 2011 - 20:12:10 EST


2.6.33-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 447c5dd7338638f526e9bcf7dcf69b4da5835c7d upstream.

A successful write() to the "reset" sysfs attribute should return the
number of bytes written, not 0. Otherwise userspace (bash) retries the
write over and over again.
