Subject: [PATCH 177/381] configfs: implement binary attributes

ConfigFS lacked binary attributes up until now. This patch
introduces support for binary attributes in a somewhat similar
manner of sysfs binary attributes albeit with changes that
fit the configfs usage model.

Problems that configfs binary attributes fix are everything that
requires a binary blob as part of the configuration of a resource,
such as bitstream loading for FPGAs, DTBs for dynamically created
devices etc.

Look at Documentation/filesystems/configfs/configfs.txt for internals
and howto use them.

This patch is against linux-next as of today that contains
Christoph's configfs rework.

+There are two types of configfs attributes:
+
+* Normal attributes, which similar to sysfs attributes, are small ASCII text
+files, with a maximum size of one page (PAGE_SIZE, 4096 on i386).  Preferably
+only one value per file should be used, and the same caveats from sysfs apply.
+Configfs expects write(2) to store the entire buffer at once.  When writing to

+file, modify the portions they wish to change, and then write the entire
+buffer back.
+
+* Binary attributes, which are somewhat similar to sysfs binary attributes,
+but with a few slight changes to semantics.  The PAGE_SIZE limitation does not
+apply, but the whole binary item must fit in single kernel vmalloc'ed buffer.
+The write(2) calls from user space are buffered, and the attributes'
+write_bin_attribute method will be invoked on the final close, therefore it is
+imperative for user-space to check the return code of close(2) in order to
+verify that the operation finished successfully.
+To avoid a malicious user OOMing the kernel, there's a per-binary attribute
+maximum buffer value.
