that approach seems ok for 2 features, but imo doesn't scale for more.
I like the original code with one exception:

	if (GH_IDENTIFY_PARTITION_CSPACE(gunyah_api.flags))
		len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, "cspace ");
	if (GH_IDENTIFY_MSGQUEUE(gunyah_api.flags))
		len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, "message-queue ");

	/* overwrite last trailing space */
	if (len)
		len--;

	len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, "\n");
	return len;
