Hopefully the below patch explains better. Note that I added the new attribute
to driver/base/cpu.c, but assuming we will still want to go down this route, we
will need a generic way for archs to add their attributes to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/.
Something like having a special define for archs to append their own
attributes list
#define SYSFS_SYSTEM_CPU_ARCH_ATTRIBUTES
Or probably there's a way to add this file (attribute) dynamically from arch
code that I just didn't figure out how to do yet.
Thanks

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: export aarch32_online mask in sysfs
This patch to be applied on top of arm64 Asymmetric AArch32 support.
It explores the option of exporting the AArch32 capable cpus as a mask
on sysfs.
This is to help drive the discussion on the API before sending the next
version which I yet to address some of the review comments.
The output looks like:
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/aarch32_online
0-5
