ppc_sys is just a convenient wrapper around the platform device model.
You can safely ignore ppc_sys if your board setup code calls
platform_device_register() for all of your devices directly.
Besides, as ppc moves to the flattened device tree for initializing
the platform bus, the whole ppc_sys stuff will be going away and the
device tree parsing code will call platform_device_* directly.
Cheers,
