As you initialize these all at once, why not just make this:
	struct attribute_group **groups;

and then set the groups up at build time instead of runtime as part of a
larger structure like the ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() macro does for "simple"
drivers?  That way you aren't fixed at the array size here and someone
has to go and check to verify you really have properly 0 terminated the
list and set up the pointers properly.
