Yes, I noticed that if you were having this problem, .24 would also be
complaining to you about creating sysfs links. I'll make up a .24 patch
for -stable after this.

Kay just pointed out that I can use a struct device field instead of
creating my own in the bus device, so I'll simplify the patch and then
send it to Linus in a bit.

Thanks so much for testing quickly and letting me know.
