Subject: [PATCH] driver core: restrict buffer length in online_store()
According to Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-online, in order to
control CPU N's hotplug state, we should write one of 'Yy1Nn0' to the file
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online, other values should be invalid. so the
buffer length should be 2, buf[0] is one of 'Yy1Nn0' and buf[1] is '\n'.
without patch:
[root@...alhost home]# echo 0test > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
[root@...alhost home]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
