Right, it should be attribute. I will rename this macro.

Yes, setting fam15h_power_group as static and not const would cause to
overwrite in multi-CPU platforms. I don't have to set it as read-only
because I use dynamical attributes. :)

I will move them into fam15h_power_data at v2.

Actually, I do this at the following patch of this serial. But never
mind, I will update it here at v2.
