Why not use the existing "unbind/bind" sysfs files that all busses
support?  That's what userspace is expecting to use for adding and
removing devices from drivers from userspace.

This is a per-driver flag that the function platform_driver_probe() sets
for all platform drivers in the first line of that function.  Remove
that line and see what happens :)
