The driver registers event attributes, but does not provide a handle to
access those attributes.
Now the question is how to best handle this case.
1) Return an error when the device is registered and abort registration
2) Skip registering the event attributes
3) Skip registering the event attributes, but print a warning
4) Register the attributes, but return an error when they are accessed
I'd prefer 2 since it offers a nice method of disabling all events for a
device (e.g. if not interrupt is provided).
On the other hand it could cause some confusion during development,
potentially causing the developer to wonder why he doesn't get any event
attributes even though he setup his channel description to have event
attributes.
Patch for 2.
