I think that the framework should show the accurate information of H/w device
through sysfs. On the exynos-bus.c driver, it is important the show the
accurate set of handled bus devices which are included in Exynos SoC.

I agree about the behavior. Your description is right.
There is no difference and benefit about behavior both your and my approach.

But, We can provide the accurate information of handled bus devices
to the user-space. I think that it is important information.

Also, I have the plan that devfreq framework would show
the topology about the correlation of bus devices as following:
