Let's put the power_state global node into the /sys/kernel directory, because that directory represents all global nodes and variables being related to the Kernel. It's also a mutable node, that is more acceptable being in the mentioned directory due to the fact that all other files in the /sys/firmware directory are just firmware blobs and are not mutable at all.
