I was relying on sysfs_kf_bin_read() which checks off (pos) before calling us.

        if (size) {
                if (pos >= size)
                        return 0;
                if (pos + count > size)
                        count = size - pos;
        }

Agree with the concern. I can submit the tests that were used. Is selftests the
best place?

The tool will be published in the same github repo as the spec once the driver
is ready.

Thanks.
