Check if the "CAP_SYS_ADMIN" capability flag is set before parsing user input as it makes more sense to first check whether the current user actually has the right permissions before accepting any input from such user. This will also make order in which enable_store() and msi_bus_store() perform the "CAP_SYS_ADMIN" capability check consistent with other PCI-related sysfs objects that first verify whether user has this capability set.

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.
