This seems like a nice solution to me.

I think this is smbios_attr_instance, right?  Maybe mention that
specifically to make it easier to match these up.

Looks like smbios_attr_instance and the similar ACPI stuff could use
some updating to use the current attribute group infrastructure.

It's conventional to name these functions *_is_visible() (another
convention that smbios_attr_instance and acpi_attr_index probably
predate).
