Is this with CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED set?

I think I may have made my warning check a little extra strict.
Yes.

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2=y

Why do you have those options enabled? Does your userspace really
require them? I want to remove those options soon, and it would be good
to find out what is still relying on them.

If you disable those options, does it then work?
Not sure when and why i enabled these options.

Without them i don't see any problem (including the badness).
