Seems odd to allow user space to fill the log by writing invalid data
to sysfs, likewise that success is returned in the else case.
I'd drop both pr_err() and return -EINVAL in the else case.

I'm not familiar with WMI, but don't you need a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE here?
How does user space know which module to load upon receiving the uevent?
