Are the WMI devices created without a parent device? If so I believe they would show up in /sys/devices/virtual, which seems wrong. I think the WMI devices ought to be children of the relevant ACPI device. I also wonder if WMI should be a bus, instead of a class. I guess that's more work, but perhaps it can be fixed up some time in the future.
