Now that I'm familiar with kobject/sysfs, option 1 or 2 is about the 
same amount of work.
Just let me know what you prefer.

I would also take suggestions about the layout, is card0/engines the 
right places?
Should I rename card0/topology to card0/eu_topology?
You could argue that both engines & eus are part of the topology of the 
GPU...
