I think most of our userspace for this platform poking
around in sysfs use /sys/class/* so should be pretty OK.

And none of which were properly documented in
Documentation/ABI/* anyway, so do we care?
grep -r 'devices/platform' Documentation/ABI/
doesn't show anything relating to the ux500.

The major breakage would be out-of-tree stuff, if
any.

Which is out-of-tree due to the absence of a SoC ID
framework.

Which was nixed by Arnd et al precisely because
the above change was not part of it.

It's a bit hard for Lee to please everyone with this
one I suspect :-D

Thanks,
