I don't know why this is so hard for me to read, but how about this
instead:

static umode_t nvmem_bin_attr_is_visible(struct kobject *kobj,
					 struct bin_attribute *attr, int i)
{
	struct device *dev = container_of(kobj, struct device, kobj);
	struct nvmem_device *nvmem = to_nvmem_device(dev);
	umode_t mode = 0400;

	if (!nvmem->root_only)
		mode |= 0044;

	if (!nvmem->read_only)
		mode |= 0200;

	return mode;
}

Did I get the logic corect?

thanks,
