Can you also add a Documentation/ABI/ update for your new sysfs files so
that we can properly review this?

Ick, are you sure you need a new kobject here? Why wouldn't a named
attribute group work instead? That should keep this patch much smaller
and simpler.

Why is this lock always needed to be grabbed? You are just reading a
value, who cares if it changes inbetween reading it and returning the
buffer string as it can change at that point in time anyway?
