Title:
  can't change usb_charge attribute in /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am on a Sony VAIO svf43142sn. My laptop has the ability to leave a
  USB port powered on even after shutdown to charge other devices. The
  value of /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/usb_charge is 1, but the
  USB port is not powered on. Also when I tried toggling it to 0 it
  resets back to 1 when I check again using cat.

  So I restarted the module sony-laptop with debug flags on. When I try

  echo -n 0 | sudo tee -a /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/usb_charge

  these are the curresponding kernel logs, implying that it was a
  success:

  [ 9121.879908] sony_laptop: found handle 0x0155 (offset: 0x07) 
  [ 9121.881386] sony_laptop: __call_snc_method: [SN07:0x0000000000000107] 
  [ 9121.881394] sony_laptop: called SN07 with 0x0107 (result: 0x0000)

  But if I cat the value of usb charge, the change is not reflected, and
  I see this when I dmesg:

  [ 9346.202318] sony_laptop: found handle 0x0155 (offset: 0x07) 
  [ 9346.202489] sony_laptop: __call_snc_method: [SN07:0x0000000000000007] 
  [ 9346.202494] sony_laptop: called SN07 with 0x0007 (result: 0x0001)

  If it matters, when i simply echo 1, I will get this:

  [ 9879.675844] sony_laptop: found handle 0x0155 (offset: 0x07) 
  [ 9879.676878] sony_laptop: __call_snc_method: [SN07:0x0000000000010107] 
  [ 9879.676885] sony_laptop: called SN07 with 0x10107 (result: 0x0000)

  The entire debug message when I restart the module(sony-laptop) is
  given here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11551226/

  
  I have asked the same as a question on askubuntu.com. It has got a other information if you need it:
