Sorry for don't fully get you. Is the sysfs announced to userspace
just in 'mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys'?

The old powersaving interface: sched_smt_power_savings also
created here. and cpu_dev_init was called early before do_initcalls
which cpuidle/cpufreq sysfs were initialized.

Do you mean this line need to init as core_initcall?

Thanks for comments! :)
