this was actually a kernel bug which was fixed in 2.6.23 final:

    Driver core: fix SYSF_DEPRECATED breakage for nested classdevs

    We should only reparent to a class former class devices that
    form the base of class hierarchy. Nested devices should still
    grow from their real parents.

I suggest reverting commit a871c7d40e13eb247bce34aae7a9ceafaf719b10 to avoid 
future confusion (and comment it adds is incomplete anyway - the issue was 
only for SYSFS_DEPRECATED case).
