It's not so much "broken" as "not currently supported".

Per the prior attempt at this [1], we only want to expose the sysfs
interface, and not the legacy procfs interface, and need the two
decoupled [2].

... or has something changed in the mean time, so that this only exposes
the sysfs interface?

... as per Will's comment in [3], the latter of these should use
pgprot_device.
