I thought about it, but wouldn't it just move the IS_ENABLED somewhere
else? I think it's messier on the kernel side to conditionally show or
hide these files.
>From the userspace side, they already have to handle both cases of the
missing file (old kernels) and a zero value. So I can't really see a
difference that makes it worthwhile to change.
Unless there is some kind of precedent to hiding sysfs files for
unavailable features? I mean maybe in that case you would also say to
hide the files if max width was 0 even on aarch64? If we don't want to
show things that aren't usable?
One other note that may not be obvious: the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM64) is
only needed to make the build succeed by not shifting things above 32
bits. Because the compiler couldn't see that threshold_max() always
returns 0 on aarch32. If it could then only one IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM)
would be needed in threshold_max(). Although that's not really related
to showing or hiding the files.

I don't think it can be avoided entirely, just moved somewhere else.
