Hi,

normally I would say that we should worry about this only when we need
to, but an API in sysfs is an exception to that rule. We can avoid
pain later if we export lane counts for both directions now
in all cases.

We should also export all raw data we have. User space can be trusted
to get a multiplication right and it is not the kernels job
to interpret such data.
