While I can ack this part here if it helps generic cleanup effort I
don't understart would it improve code readability in general? Mode 644
is clear and don't need any grepping but for DEVICE_ATTR_RW() I had to go
through all of these files in order to see what does it mean:

DEVICE_ATTR_RW: include/linux/device.h
__ATTR_RW: include/linux/sysfs.h
S_IWUSR: include/uapi/linux/stat.h
S_IRUGO: include/linux/stat.h
