Yes, you are right here. Thanks for detailed explanation. Being
"per-cpu" comes from kobj embedded at policy, which has information
about cpus affected.

Yes, correct. The ret from sysfs_create_file shall be returned.
Returning 1 causes information lost.

I'm confused here.
So you want to check dev_attr for NULL just after:
drv_attr = cpufreq_driver->attr;
if (!drv_attr)
goto error;
and skip the check at the while loop:
while ((drv_attr) && (*drv_attr))
to
while ((*drv_attr))
Am I correct?
