Subject[PATCH 4.14 143/193] libnvdimm, region : make resource attribute only readable by root
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

commit b8ff981f88df03c72a4de2f6eaa9ce447a10ac03 upstream.

For the same reason that /proc/iomem returns 0's for non-root readers
and acpi tables are root-only, make the 'resource' attribute for region
devices only readable by root. Otherwise we disclose physical address
information.

Fixes: 802f4be6feee ("libnvdimm: Add 'resource' sysfs attribute to regions")
