What's wrong the error code returned to echo, why spam the log?

Similar comment I forgot to add on the pr_info() upon unloading the
module in the previous patch. What's wrong with the error code returned
to "modprobe -r"?

It's unfortunate that this is needed when dev_{err,info,dbg} family of
functions would scope the messages appropriately automatically. If only
there was a 'struct device' this driver could reference. More on this
below...

This looks like an abuse of the platform_device_register_simple() API
to me, i.e. to register and tear down a device every time someone
echoes a value to a sysfs file. This registration process fires off a
KOBJ_ADD event to tell udev a new device has appeared, and before udev
scripts have a chance to do anything useful this device is gone again.
If I were someone that wanted to automate testing my CPUs as uevent
notifying me when the "ifs" device has arrived would be useful.

If ifs_init() registered a platform device to represent the ifs
interface it would also provide a private place to hang the ifs sysfs
interface rather than glomming onto the /sys/devices/system/cpu core
ABI. I personally don't think ifs functionality belongs under
/sys/devices/system/cpu. Also, with statically defined sysfs attributes
automation scripts would be able to safely assume that the sysfs
interface is ready coincident with the KOBJ_ADD event.
