Hmm. I was under the impression that all sysfs functions from myrb/myrs
are local, hence I would not need to prefix them.
If this isn't the case I definitely will be fixing them.

But in any case, if possible any sysfs function should be local to the
driver; no-one else should ever attempt to use them.
And we should be making it so if that's not the case.

Cheers,

Hannes
