[PATCH] sysfs: Unbreak the build around sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read()

From: Lukas Wunner
Date: Thu May 23 2024 - 07:06:09 EST


Günter reports build breakage for m68k "m5208evb_defconfig" plus
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y caused by commit 66bc1a173328 ("treewide:
Use sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper").

The defconfig disables CONFIG_SYSFS, so sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read()
is not compiled into the kernel. But init/initramfs.c references
that function in the initializer of a struct bin_attribute.

Add an empty static inline to avoid the build breakage.

Fixes: 66bc1a173328 ("treewide: Use sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper")
