Yes. All your comments are oviously correct.
Please check updated patch.

Subject: [PATCH] sysdev: remove global sysdev drivers list
No one uses sysdev_drivers. Because no one calls sysdev_driver_register
with NULL class.
And it is difficult to imagine that someone want to implement a global
sysdev driver which is called with all sys_device on any kind of
sysdev_class.
So this patch removes global sysdev_drivers list and update comments
for this change.
