Subject: [PATCH V14 5/7] driver-core: Introduce BIN_ATTR_ADMIN_{RO,RW}

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@...el.com>

Many binary attributes need to limit access to CAP_SYS_ADMIN only; ie
many binary attributes specify is_visible with 0400 or 0600.

Make setting the permissions of such attributes more explicit by
defining BIN_ATTR_ADMIN_{RO,RW}.

		NOTE: this has a lot of similarities to
		https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210416205856.3234481-7-kw@linux.com/
		I'm not sure why that patch was not picked up.  But I've
		added Krzysztof as a suggested by if that is ok?
