Commit 5f81880d5204 ("sysfs, kobject: allow creating kobject belonging to arbitrary users") incorrectly changed the argument passed as the parent parameter when calling sysfs_add_file_mode_ns(). This caused some sysfs attribute files to not be added correctly to certain groups.

Note, this was a regression exclusively in linux-next and never made it to Linus' tree. There's no need to queue it up for linux-stable.
