There is a series[1] that I'd like to get into mainline during the next
merge window and that depends on this patch. Ideally it would go in
for v5.14-rc1, otherwise I'd like to add it to the series changing
bus_type::remove that it goes in together. Would be sad if I had to
delay this cleanup for this dependency not going in.

Best regards
