Public bug reported:

If i configure incorrect values for /etc/sysfs.conf or
/etc/sysfs.d/foo.conf the init script /etc/init.d/sysfsutils does not
report problems correctly.

If a sysfs file does not exist or sysfs does not accept the value there is 
currently no feedback.
Besides of the fact that the user expects to get a feedback, this is also a bit 
suboptimal if you use system automation tools like puppet to configure your 
server systems.

/etc/init.d/sysfsutils shoul provide visual and exitcode feedback to
inform the user about problems.

I added a patch to solve this problem.
