Ack to the general purpose of the patch but I think we should take care to
support older systems that still use the legacy /proc/acpi/*dt interfaces.

I don't have a strong preference on how you do that although I think it is
probably more robust to check for the presence of the /sys files first and then
fall back to /proc than to try to bind this to specific kernel version/release
numbers.

Regards,
Bryn.
