Subject: [PATCH 0/8] misc: remove boundary checks from bin attr users

This change removes a number of redundant checks on bin attribute
client's side, the same checks are done by sysfs_kf_bin_read() or
sysfs_kf_bin_write() caller from fs/sysfs/file.c.

Note, drivers/misc/pch_phub.c and drivers/misc/c2port/core.c may be
updated in a similar way, however this task is not done due to more
complicated read()/write() callbacks.

No functional change, hopefully.
