Odd as I don't find such a proc interface in my Ubuntu WSL. It seems to be Android specific.

I see no reference to that file in a checkout of the upstream Linux kernel I had here, and I never saw that file in /proc in any Linux system I've played with, but looking at my phone (with Termux) I do see that file. I agree, it seems to be Android specific.

It's filed as a ChromeOS bug...Chromebooks and family.

So if it doesn't exist in regular Linux or ChromeOS, then it must be an Android feature that was accidentally enabled in non-Android builds.
