I was hesitant about fixing busybox as I wasn't sure if it's worthy to make a patch to only fix the path for busybox. I don't know why busybox puts it into /bin. I think the best place may be /usr/sbin/. A little unluckily this patch to powertop has been already in poky master... So maybe we could try to fix the recipes in future, e.g., when upgrading them.
