I am not deep enough in the sysfs code to tell you if Mark's change it correct or not. It looks however fully reasonable to me.

We seem to have broken an unusually large amount of stuff this time. partial post-mortem: - The ACPICA merge landed in -mm super-late: basically it was in mainline a week afterwards and saw only a single -mm release.
