You should use dev_groups instead of the dev_attrs field of struct bus_type. This converts the MDIO bus code to use the correct field.

What's wrong with dev_attrs? (Not offending, I'm just curious where the preference for dev_groups is referred...)
This patch is based on commit 4192c74940e23da727eb02b7b4ee779dde2f670, its message indicates that dev_attrs is going away.
OK, makes sense. Then please keep such information in the changelog. BTW, the code in question isn't MDIO at all.
Sorry, about that!
Also, it'd be better to move ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS(soundbus_dev) into soundbus/sysfs.c, and make it this global instead of soundbus_dev_attrs[].
Ok, I need to find a nice way to do that because ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS declares the structure as static.
Ah, right. I fell to the same pintfall in the past, too :)
I will send a second version with a better solution.
If it results in an ungly code, it's fine with the original code, too. But, maybe with a comment indicating that xxx_dev_attrs[] is defined in xxx.c.
thanks,
Takashi
