Subject: [PATCH] UIO: introduce sysfs_ops for map_attr_ktype

This fixes two bugs with UIO that cropped up recently in -rc1

1) WARNING: at fs/sysfs/file.c:334 sysfs_open_file when trying to open
   a map addr/size file - complaining about missing sysfs_ops for ktype
        
2) Permission denied when reading uio/uio0/maps/map0/{addr,size} when
   files are mode S_IRUGO

Also fix a typo: attr_attribute -> addr_attribute
