Need to create sub-directories in /sys/class/fc_host/hostX/ directory

	I need to create two sub-directory in /sys/class/fc_host/hostX/
directory. The directories are /sys/class/fc_host/hostX/fcoe for
FCoE host attributes and /sys/class/fc_host/hostX/fcoe/statistics
for FCoE statistics. I read the kernel documents regarding the
kobject.txt as well as sample driver sources (kobject_example.c and
kset_example.c) but could not find proper way to do this.

	The FC transport layer uses host_attributes transport container
present in scsi_transport_template to display the FC host attributes
and statistics. The transport container has only one attribute_group
defined. So looks like I can add only one attribute group. The
alternative is to create a new kobject and create a sysfs group.
In order to do this I need to know the kobject of the parent
directory(i.e /sys/class/fc_host/hostX). Since the hostX directory
keeps changing as and when the driver gets unloaded and loaded, I
can't use static implementation. Is there a way to know the parent
directory for this particular directory. If not what is the best way
to do this. Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Giridhar Malavali
