Totally wrong. I'm free to just stop discussion. That's the difference
between the old type of os communites and corporates where people do
what they've got instructed from above without discussion. I offered
something and wasn't paid to do something.

It was worth a try but I don't have to build a framework to achieve
something simple just because a maintainer requests it.

I want to see the mentionend information and want that it is seen and do
not want to hide it away deep in the sysfs where it actually must be
searched.
