Not directly related to this patch, but a question I started wondering
about recently:  Is there some generic guideline wrt parsing boolean
flags in sysfs?  If not, shouldn't there be?

I see a lot of different approaches implementing this basic function.
Personally I would prefer if they all did something like the 
set_usb2_hardware_lpm in drivers/usb/core/sysfs.c:

static ssize_t
set_usb2_hardware_lpm(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
                const char *buf, size_t count)
{
        struct usb_device *udev = to_usb_device(dev);
        bool value;
        int ret;

        usb_lock_device(udev);

        ret = strtobool(buf, &value);

        if (!ret)
                ret = usb_set_usb2_hardware_lpm(udev, value);

        usb_unlock_device(udev);

        if (!ret)
                return count;

        return ret;
}



Using strtobool() to allow "Y", "yes", "1" etc makes a nice user
interface IMHO.  Unless of course the variable is a true integer which
only happens to currently allow 0 and 1, but may be extended with more
values later.
