+ * sysfs_change_owner - change owner of the given object.
+ * @kobj: object.
+ * @kuid: new owner's kuid
+ * @kgid: new owner's kgid
+ *
+ * Change the owner of the default directory, files, groups, and attributes of
+ * @kobj to @kuid/@kgid. Note that sysfs_change_owner mirrors how the sysfs
+ * entries for a kobject are added by driver core. In summary,
+ * sysfs_change_owner() takes care of the default directory entry for @kobj,
+ * the default attributes associated with the ktype of @kobj and the default
+ * attributes associated with the ktype of @kobj.
+ * Additional properties not added by driver core have to be changed by the
+ * driver or subsystem which created them. This is similar to how
+ * driver/subsystem specific entries are removed.
+ *
+ * Returns 0 on success or error code on failure.
