If the device supports get poison list for volatile memory, just grab
that too. With the "to be released soon" region patches userspace can
trivially translate DPA addresses to media type.

kstrtobool()?

dev_err() is overkill for sysfs errors. dev_dbg() can be nice for errors
that trigger deep within the kernel in response to a sysfs write. In
this case EINVAL return is sufficient.

Too chatty, dev_dbg() or delete.

Use the kobj_to_dev() helper.
