For example the jbt6k74 driver had one internal state variable 
containing both resolution and power mode. So if you wanted to suspend 
the driver you had to remember which resolution it has. And on resume 
switch back to that resolution. This state was exported through sysfs. 
But losing the resolution when changing power mode, is in my opinion a 
bad design. So I got rid of it and with it the sys entry.

Also there are some drivers which have mostly been rewritten and 
producing a clean patch set for them will probably require quite some 
work and time which I currently don't have.
