Hello! Is not the whole /proc/apci/ibm API for new things obsoleted or deprecated?
And should not rather it use platform driver in /sys/ (class?) namespace?

There is an ongoing discussion about API to this kind of devices
somewhere in GPU mailing lists.
This interface is custom and probably shall never have been appeared.
However no-one prevented this from happening.
