I was referring to triggers in general, not just hrtimer triggers.

But I see now that we can set trig->dev.groups to point to our
specific attributes. This
should work.

Anyhow, I'm not convinced that sampling_frequency should be configured
from sysfs.
We create the trigger from configfs:

$ mkdir /config/triggers/hrtimer-instance0

Then, likely we have to do something like this:

$ echo 100 > /sys/bus/iio/trigger7/sampling_frequency

How is the user application going to know which is the exact directory
for hrtimer-instance0 ?
