Previously, the weighted interleave sysfs structure was statically managed during initialization. This prevented new nodes from being recognized when memory hotplug events occurred, limiting the ability to update or extend sysfs entries dynamically at runtime. To address this, this patch refactors the sysfs infrastructure and encapsulates it within a new structure, `sysfs_wi_group`, which holds both the kobject and an array of node attribute pointers. By allocating this group structure globally, the per-node sysfs attributes can be managed beyond initialization time, enabling external modules to insert or remove node entries in response to events such as memory hotplug or node online/offline transitions. Instead of allocating all per-node sysfs attributes at once, the initialization path now uses the existing sysfs_wi_node_add() and sysfs_wi_node_delete() helpers. This refactoring makes it possible to modularly manage per-node sysfs entries and ensures the infrastructure is ready for runtime extension.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
