The name can be in the struct device (it should be the same, right?)

Isn't this just the parent of the device?  Do you really need this?

Shouldn't this be a pointer to a list of groups?

Shouldn't this be embedded inside here, instead of a pointer?

Please use the idr interface, don't roll your own, odds are you got it
wrong, and I don't want to have to debug it :(

Isn't this a global symbol that you have (or static symbol).  There
should never be more than one "class" around for these devices.

See, one class :)

No locking, please use the idr interface...

We now have a function you should use instead,
device_create_with_groups() that solves the race condition you just
caused here by creating and notifying userspace that the device is
present, _before_ creating the sysfs files for it.

Useless noise, remove it.

No need to do this as:

Will do it for you if you make the changes above.
