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.
