This whole thing is not what I suggested, I only had an idea of using
sysfs_emit_at(). BUT...

...I haven't paid attention that this is not sysfs attribute handling
in the default way, this is customized one and the passed buffer is
in user space.

Hence the correct fix is just replace PAGE_SIZE with sizeof(buf) as it was
I suppose in v1. Sorry for my mistake.
