Jason Gunthorpe 2aa72ec97c vfio/mdev: Use the driver core to create the 'remove' file
The device creator is supposed to use the dev.groups value to add sysfs
files before device_add is called, not call sysfs_create_files() after
device_add() returns. This creates a race with uevent delivery where the
extra attribute will not be visible.

This was being done because the groups had been co-opted by the mdev
driver, now that prior patches have moved the driver's groups to the
struct device_driver the dev.group is properly free for use here.
