misc: Add attribute groups

Browse Source 
Add groups field to struct miscdevice for passing the attribute groups
at device creation.  In this way, the driver can avoid the manual call
of device_create_file() after the device registration, which is
basically a racy operation, in addition to the reduction of manual
device_remove_file() calls.
