That is a possibility - though the docs refer to "configuration files"
irrespective of what they actually contain, so I think having these in
configurations
is not too bad.

cs-syscfg is regarded as our subsystem root so treated slightly
differently in terms of registration etc in the configfs API.
We know we can hang groups (directories) off it, so presumably
attributes (files) would be fine too.

Shouldn't be too difficult to try out, and I can easily back out if
issues arise.

Thanks
