If I understand you correctly, you are asking the opposite that Arnd
asked me in a
previous patch version: he told me no new callbacks, just use the
device attribute API.
However I'm not sure I understand your proposal, do you mean to let
the device attr
stay in the driver file, and do the group inside the common part? Therefore,
to pass a dev attributes array to the common part?
If not, could you please explain your proposal again?
