I'd like to hear from some of the main contributors to this driver:
Matthew?
Carlos?
Len?
Any cocnerns on this change?
My initial concern is about changign how we expose this to userspace, but I
believe where it appears in the /sys/devices FS is NOT part of the
kernel-userspace interface commitment (per sysfs-rules.txt).
Greg, is that correct?
