[PATCH] MPBL0010 driver sysfs permissions wide open

[Mark Bellon <mbellon@mvista.com>]

The MPBL0010 Telco clock driver (drivers/char/tlclk.c) uses 0222 (anyone 
can write) permissions on its writable sysfs entries. IMHO this is a bit 
too wide open for proper security. The patch (against 2.6.16.1) alters 
the permissions to 0220 (owner and group can write).
