From: David Brownell <[email protected]>
Add a new PM_SYSFS_DEPRECATED config option to control whether or
not the /sys/devices/.../power/state files are provided. This will
make it easier to get rid of that mechanism when the time comes,
and to verify that userspace tools work right without it.

+ The driver model started out with a sysfs file intended to provide
+ a userspace hook for device power management. This feature has never
+ worked very well, except for limited testing purposes, and so it will

+ handle the wide variability of device power states; any replacements
+ are likely to be bus or driver specific.
