Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.9 149/156] scsi: sd: change allow_restart to
 bool in sysfs interface

From: weiping zhang <zhangweiping@...ichuxing.com>

[ Upstream commit 658e9a6dc1126f21fa417cd213e1cdbff8be0ba2 ]

/sys/class/scsi_disk/0:2:0:0/allow_restart can be changed to 0
unexpectedly by writing an invalid string such as the following:

echo asdf > /sys/class/scsi_disk/0:2:0:0/allow_restart
