I wouldn't take my particular use case as evidence they are common, or
even they really exist. I got here because I loaded a hwmon driver
using the _DSD/PRP0001 mechanism in ACPI. In that case, those devices
have never worked with 'sensors' Therefore, in that context, this
change is just fixing a bug.
I can't say much about other apps writing against the current sysfs
names. 18 months seems like a long time.
