	Requiring userspace to close and re-open sysfs attributes has been the policy since before 2.6.12. It allows userspace to get a consistent snapshot of kernel state and consume it with incremental reads and seeks. Now, if the file position is zero the kernel assumes userspace wants to see the new value. The application for this change is to allow a userspace RAID metadata handler to check the state of an array without causing any memory allocations. Thus not causing writeback to a raid array that might be blocked waiting for userspace to take action.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds
	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
