DEVICE_ATTR_RO is just newer, and I think CCN, CCI, SMMU, etc. would
be using it if they were written today.  Of course, the drivers/perf
maintainers may have a different opinion :)

Sounds good.  Not sure the error checking is worthwhile since
pci_read_config_dword() really doesn't return meaningful errors
anyway.

Yes.  I'm suggesting that the NULL pointer oops itself has enough
information to debug this problem, even without the pci_err().
