[3/3] Add a new example of kobject/attribute

The attached patch can provide a new exmple to use kobject and attribute.
The _show() and _store() method can refer/store the private data field of
kobj_attribute structure to know what entries are refered by users.
It will make easier to share a single _show()/_store() method with several
entries.
