We already check if the CPU is present at runtime before we give out the data.

+#define CPUINFO_ATTR_RO(_name)							\
+	static ssize_t show_##_name (struct device *dev,			\
+			struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf)		\
+	{									\
+		struct cpuinfo_arm64 *info = &per_cpu(cpu_data, dev->id);	\
+		if (!cpu_present(dev->id))					\
+			return -ENODEV;						\
+										\

Did you mean to check online/offline ?
