Don't initialize this to NULL because it is only tested after it's been
unconditionally assigned to the result of the allocation.

Please use kcalloc() instead and drop the define for NUM_ATTR_GROUPS
because it's used once.

Drop this assignment to NULL because kzalloc() and kcalloc() zero out
the memory anyway.
