Please never add any custom files to the top-level of a class
directory. This place is reserved for devices, and not for custom
files. It's a serious bug in the layout and API of sysfs that this
allowed at all.

If you need these subsystem-wide contols please use a bus and not a
class to stuff these files into a place where they don't mix up with
the list of devices belonging to a class. Buses have all devices in a
devices/ subdir so they will not conflict.

Thanks,
Kay
