While for initial driver development and testing this might be useful it is quite disadvantageous in a production environment. The write() call to the sysfs attribute will already return an error if the value was invalid so the application is aware that the operation failed. And generally speaking it is impossible for an application to reliably match a log message in the kernel log to a specific operation it performed, so the message becomes just noise and might distract from more critical messages.
