From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@xxxxxxxxxx> 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.
