[PATCH 3/6] IB/qib: Use device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes

[Lukas Wunner]

Deduplicate sysfs ->show() callbacks which expose a string at a static
memory location.  Use the newly introduced device_show_string() helper
in the driver core instead by declaring those sysfs attributes with
DEVICE_STRING_ATTR_RO().

No functional change intended.
