That may have been a wrong choice of word here, if that is what it
means. The use of these interfaces is in post boot shell scripts, and
userspace services. As these are Qualcomm specific, I don't think we
have any examples in Android. I have now mentioned the use-cases of
sysfs interface, in my reply on Dmitry's email on PATCH 2/2. Have added
you there to avoid duplication.
