LU-8066 sysfs: make ping sysfs file read and writable
Starting with 4.15 kernels any sysfs read only is limited to
root access only. To retain the ability for non root users
to detect if a remote server is alive using the 'ping' sysfs
file we need to change it to writable. Retain the read ability
so older tools will work.
