The plaintiff makes a valid point. How about a staging approach: We put 
the patch as it is now into 2.6.23 so the problem is fixed, and I'll post 
a "nice" version with autoloading support and a generic of_make_bus_id 
function for 2.6.24. Agree?

Ok, sounds fair. Can you make sure that the resulting bus_id is the same
for the final version then?
