It's like a train wreck, you just can't tear away your eyes...

You race with userspace in the creation of your sysfs files.  Your
device is announced to userspace and then, later on, you create the
sysfs files.  This means that tools like libudev never sees your files,
so the attributes aren't read properly by loads of userspace programs
that you want to have read them.

Please fix that before resending this as well.
