[PATCH 0/2] Fix return code and improve feature check for synthetic uevents
From: Peter Rajnoha
Date: Wed Dec 05 2018 - 06:27:54 EST
Two small patches to aid handling of synthetic uevents back in userspace:
- Return error code back to userspace on /sys/.../uevent file write
failure so userspace knows and it can act accordingly.
- Add new 'kernel/uevent_features' sysfs file to make it possible for
userspace to check that the extended synthetic uevent arguments are
supported without relying on kernel version check only.

kobject: return error code if writing /sys/.../uevent fails
kobject: add kernel/uevent_features sysfs file
