Subject: mm/thp: use conventional format for boolean attributes
From: Ben Hutchings <[email protected]>
The conventional format for boolean attributes in sysfs is numeric ("0" or
"1" followed by new-line). Any boolean attribute can then be read and
written using a generic function. Using the strings "yes [no]", "[yes]
no" (read), "yes" and "no" (write) will frustrate this.
[[email protected]: use kstrtoul()]
[[email protected]: test_bit() doesn't return 1/0, per Neil]
