Never use WARN_ON() unless you want the machine to reboot if it triggers
(panic on warn).
But the larger question is what is this sysfs link for? It's not
documented anywhere, and so, shouldn't be allowed. Who is going to use
it and why is it needed?

sysfs_emit()?
And you forgot the Documentation/ABI/ entries for this driver, so it
really can not be reviewed...

You just raced userspace and lost :(
Please use the correct api to add sysfs attributes to the device
automatically by the driver core. But the larger question is why do you
need them at all? What do they do that we can't already do with
existing apis that you feel a one-off api for this driver is required?

(void)????
Please no, do it right.
But, why is a driver calling this function anyway? That feels really
really wrong...
