s/feature/protocol ?

Personally, I would still have each file content repeat the same information as
the file name specifies. That is, file value == file name. That will avoid
people getting confused as empty sysfs files are rather uncommon.

You said that the kernel caches the protocols supported. So it should not be
hard to allocate one attribute for each of the supported protocols when these
are discovered, no ?

Why is this a static variable instead of being a member of the pci doe_mb struct
?d Devices without DOE support would always have that as NULL and only the
devices that support it would get the group and array of attributes that you
allocate in pci_doe_sysfs_proto_supports(). That would also remove the need for
the attrs array being a static variable as well.

An let's spell things out to be clear and avoid confusions: s/protos/protocols
