Subject: [PATCH 1/2] sysfs: allow the group is_visible() method to return a
	mode and add an update API

We have a problem in scsi_transport_spi in that we need to customise
not only the visibility of the attributes, but also their mode.  Fix
this by making the is_visible() callback return a mode, with 0
indicating is not visible.

Also add a sysfs_update_group() API to allow us to change either the
visibility or mode of the files at any time on the fly.

Greg, can I take this through SCSI, please ... assuming it's OK?  We
need this to fix up the SPI transport class.

Thanks,

James
