Reading and writing. Replacement for "cardctl suspend" and "cardctl resume".


static int pccardctl_power_one(unsigned long socket_no, unsigned int device,
                               unsigned int power)
{
        int ret;
        char file[SYSFS_PATH_MAX];
        struct sysfs_attribute *attr;

        snprintf(file, SYSFS_PATH_MAX,
                 "/sys/bus/pcmcia/devices/%lu.%u/power/state",
                 socket_no, device);

        attr = sysfs_open_attribute(file);
        if (!attr)
                return -ENODEV;

        ret = sysfs_write_attribute(attr, power ? "2" : "0", 1);

        sysfs_close_attribute(attr);

        return (ret);
}


NB: it will break one day, one way or another, when gregkh makes the
/sys/class -> /sys/devices conversion. However, I'd want to try not to break
the new pcmciautils userspace too often...
