Subject: [PATCH 2/2 v2] char: misc: use octal permissions for the proc entry
Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2017 20:22:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1492453377-23796-2-git-send-email-martin@kaiser.cx> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1492453377-23796-1-git-send-email-martin@kaiser.cx>

Set the permissions for /proc/misc to 0444 explicitly. At the moment,
we're using 0 and have proc_create_data() convert this to 0444.
This fixes a checkpatch warning.
