Basically I checked the places where single sysfs entry is showing more then 1 output. And 1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state 2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/trans_table are the places where the output is more than 1 value. Anyway I can enclose this sysfs inside CONFIG_THERMAL_COOLING_STATS macro.
