This wrecks use-sysdev_class-in-schedc.patch (below), which I merged a
week ago and will now drop.

Why did this patch from Andi just turn up in linux-next now, halfway
through the merge window?  It has a commit date of July 1 yet it has
never before been sighted in linux-next.




From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

The power_saving* attributes are really sysdev_class stuff, so we must
create them via sysdev_class_create_file().  The parameters of callback
functions must be also fixed.
