Thomas Richter 78d732e1f3 s390/cpum_sf.c: fix file permission for cpum_sfb_size
This file is installed by the s390 CPU Measurement sampling
facility device driver to export supported minimum and
maximum sample buffer sizes.
This file is read by lscpumf tool to display the details
of the device driver capabilities. The lscpumf tool might
be invoked by a non-root user. In this case it does not
print anything because the file contents can not be read.

Fix this by allowing read access for all users. Reading
the file contents is ok, changing the file contents is
left to the root user only.

For further reference and details see:

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.

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.
