Subject: [PATCH 3.16 166/366] xen-netfront: Use static attribute groups
 for sysfs entries

3.16.61-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit 27b917e54bed7156c2b0249969ace34a5f585626 upstream.

Instead of manual calls of device_create_file() and
device_remove_files(), assign the static attribute groups to netdev
groups array.  This simplifies the code and avoids the possible
races.
