Good catch. Before changing to DEVICE_ATTR_WO(), the permissions used
was (S_IWUSR | S_IWGRP), which would be 0220. This means the
permissions were mistakenly changed from 0220 to 0200 in the same
patch:
commit 4e2b79436e4f ("PCI: sysfs: Change DEVICE_ATTR() to DEVICE_ATTR_WO()")
To verify DEVICE_ATTR_WO() is using __ATTR_WO() can be seen in
/include/linux/device.h
To verify permissions for __ATTR_WO() is 0200 can be seen in
/inlcude/linux/sysfs.h
These attributes had permissions 0220 when first being introduced and
before the above mentioned patch, so I'm on the side to believe that
0220 should be used.
The commits that introduced the files:
commit 738a6396c223 ("PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../rescan"):
commit b9d320fcb625 ("PCI: add rescan to /sys/.../pci_bus/.../"):
May you please sanity check this logic to use 0220? I can create a
second patch to change the permissions from the currently used 0200 to
0220.

This can be done, yes! I agree this could help clarify and clean up the code.
I can implement your commit log as well.
Let me know your thoughts for the permissions and I'll get an updated
version out right away.
Thank you!
