__ATTR_RO() please.

__ATTR_RO() here too.

You just raced with userspace (creating and announcing the kobject and
then, afterward, at some later point in time, created the sysfs files.
Please use the groups option to create the files properly before
announcing the kobject to userspace.

Same race condition here as well. Use a groups structure please.
