Hi Fabrice,

I can confirm that I'm hitting this regression as well with the
104-quad-8 driver. The warning seems to be caused by the
offset_in_page(buf) check in sysfs_emit(). It looks like the first loop
in enums_available_show() calls sysfs_emit() correctly, but subsequent
loops have an invalid buf offset.

The enums_available_show() callback is rather simple: call sysfs_emit()
for each enum string and increment buf by the length written each time.
I haven't modified this function since v8, so I am somewhat confused
about why the buf offset would be invalid here now. I wonder if there
has been a change somewhere else in the kernel that is causing
sysfs_emit() to now return an incorrect length.
