You're providing no motivation for this and it's difficult to see how it
improves things. The class device is dynamically numbered so it's not
suitable for specifying supplies on a non-DT system and for a DT system
it's not obvious to me that we would want to involve the class device in
anything, it requires an additional layer of indirection but that's
about it.
