The driver core supports the ability to handle the creation and removal of device-specific sysfs files in a race-free manner. Take advantage of that by converting this driver to use this by moving the sysfs attributes into a group and assigning the dev_groups pointer to it.

The subtle scary thing about this usage in general is that this makes the sysfs attributes live before it is known that the driver probe succeeded. So beyond the cleanup of using devm to do something that the driver-core already handles it removes a hard to reason about race compared to the well known lifetime of driver->dev_groups.
