In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sysfs: check visibility before changing group attribute ownership

Since commit 0c17270f9b92 ("net: sysfs: Implement is_visible for
phys_(port_id, port_name, switch_id)"), __dev_change_net_namespace() can
hit WARN_ON() when trying to change owner of a file that isn't visible.
See the trace below:

Fix this by checking is_visible() before trying to touch the attribute.
