[PATCH 3/3] a new example to use kobject/kobj_attribute

This patch can provide a new exmple to use kobject and attribute.
The _show() and _store() method can refer/store the private data field of
kobj_attribute structure to know what entries are accessed by users.
It will make easier to share a single _show()/_store() method with several
entries.
