Calling read() for a single byte read will return 2 currently. Use
simple_read_from_buffer() which correctly handles all sizes.

why \n is inserted in the buf..

rv variable is unused now.

- rv = copy_to_user(usr_buf, buf, cnt);
- if (rv)
- return rv;
-
- *ppos += cnt;
- return cnt;
+ return simple_read_from_buffer(usr_buf, size, ppos, buf, cnt);



Looks good to me.
Remove the unused variable.
