From: Anton Vasilyev <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit 744820869166c8c78be891240cf5f66e8a333694 ]
Debugfs file reset_stats is created with S_IRUSR permissions, but ocrdma_dbgfs_ops_read() doesn't support OCRDMA_RESET_STATS, whereas ocrdma_dbgfs_ops_write() supports only OCRDMA_RESET_STATS.
The patch fixes misstype with permissions.
