Merely change CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED to be set to yes, and it should
all work just fine. Doesn't anyone read the Kconfig help entries for
new kernel options?
1. This doesn't fix it.

I think acpi is now being fingered here, right?

Eh? How. Backing out all your patches from -mm fixes it.
The deprecated stuff does not fix it, it's the same as before.

Unless it's some strange interaction between driver-core/sysfs and ACPI,
I don't see how it can be ACPI's fault?

2. Breaking things by default with an option to unbreak them is not
the finest of plans ;-)

Yes, I have now changed the default for that option to be on to help
guide people even better than before.

There's still some other problem there though. See:

who's config is here:

A working log from that machine is here:
