Fix sysfs attrs naming to comply with the ABI, e.g.: > in_capacitance0_calibbias_calibration -> in_capacitance0_calibbias Take a careful look at what these are doing before you do that :) Then consider what the usecases are.

Hardly anything is done with board files these days - though we should maintain the platform data for anyone who is using them (for now). There may well be other things that come out of the woodwork once we do a formal review of the patch that proposes moving it out of staging (there almost always is!)
