commit 0016d3201753b59f3ae84b868fe66c86ad256f19 upstream. The new opmode notification used this attribute with a u8, when it's documented as a u32 and indeed used in userspace as such, it just happens to work on little-endian systems since userspace isn't doing any strict size validation, and the u8 goes into the lower byte. Fix this.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
