Let me put it to you this way--which one of these sysfs operations is 
behaving correctly?

	# cd /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0
	# cat online
	1
	# echo 1 > online; echo $?
	0

or

	# cd /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0
	# cat state
	online
	# echo online > state; echo $?
	-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
	1

One of them should change to match the other.
