Uhm, hotplug anyone?
What's with hotplug ?


Who's to say all cpus are online at this point? If you don't want to
make the files come and go with hotplug, one should use
for_each_possible_cpu().

I don't oppose that.
But I don't really parse what you mean by "make the files go away". We have just one file, with multiple entries. The entries are in key:value form, so I don't see a huge problem in having some entries disappearing.

As a matter of fact, this is exactly what happens in /proc/stat when you offline a cpu: the correspondent line will stop showing up.
