Uom.

In my subjective, currently, procfs is used for representing dynamic
information such as statistical data, and sysfs is used for representing
statical information such as module parameters.
In this case, I think that this I/O information is  former, so information
is put into procfs in this time.
As similar example, ballon infromation exist in procfs.

Is it better that realizing at sysfs?

Thanks,
