4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
From: Bartosz Golaszewski brgl@bgdev.pl
[ Upstream commit e5332d5437764f775cf4e3b8ca3bf592af063a02 ]
User space can currently both read and set values of input lines using the character device. This was not allowed by the old sysfs interface nor is it a correct behavior.
Check the first descriptor in the set for the OUT flag when asked to set values and return -EPERM if the line is input.

Hi Greg,
FYI Linus suggested that we don't send this one for stable: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/20/1065
