Ok, I need to find a nice way to do that because ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS
declares the
structure as static.

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.


Since sound/aoa/soundbus/sysfs is small, a solution would be
to merge sound/aoa/soundbus/sysfs.c and sound/aoa/soundus/core.c.
Moreover all 172 other usages of the ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS macro
define the struct attribute *xxx_attrs[] in the same file
they assign the .dev_groups field.

I'm not sure about this change as it seems way more important than
adding a comment line as you suggested.

Should I send a patch merging these two files?
