Duncan Laurie 655603de68 gsmi: Fix bug in append_to_eventlog sysfs handler
The sysfs handler should return the number of bytes consumed, which in the
case of a successful write is the entire buffer.  Also fix a bug where
param.data_len was being set to (count - (2 * sizeof(u32))) instead of just
(count - sizeof(u32)).  The latter is correct because we skip over the
leading u32 which is our param.type, but we were also incorrectly
subtracting sizeof(u32) on the line where we were actually setting
param.data_len:

	param.data_len = count - sizeof(u32);

This meant that for our example event.kernel_software_watchdog with total
length 10 bytes, param.data_len was just 2 prior to this change.

To test, successfully append an event to the log with gsmi sysfs.
This sample event is for a "Kernel Software Watchdog"

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
