OK thanks for your thoughts.

If eventually it turns out that having this inside the firmware-attributes class would be really useful we can add it later, while keeping the sysfs attr for backward compat. My thinking being here that the code for the single sysfs attr is quite small, where as adding firmware-attributes class support will be more involved
At least looking at the context of that diff I see a whole bunch of 
settings listed and this is "just one more". I noticed:  "eGPU", "lid 
resume", "ALS enable", "fan boost mode".

Maybe a later follow up should implement ALL of these as 
firmware-attributes but keep compatibility for sysfs.
