If you had suggested to replace
struct sensor_device_attribute sd_attrs[TOTAL_ATTRS];
with
struct device_attribute sd_attrs[TOTAL_ATTRS];
what you suggested may actually be possible and make sense. However,
suggesting to dump the index parameter of SENSOR_ATTR() completely
because _this_ driver may no longer need it seems to be a little excessive.

That driver could and should have used DEVICE_ATTR() instead of
SENSOR_DEVICE_ATTR(), and there are various other drivers where
that would have made sense. Actually, it should have used
DEVICE_ATTR_RW() but that is just a detail.
However, there are more than 2,000 uses of SENSOR_DEVICE_ATTR() and derived
macros in the kernel. The large majority of those do set index to values != 0,
and the affected drivers would not be happy if that argument disappeared.
Frankly, I am not entirely sure if you were serious with your suggestion.
I tried to give a serious reply, but I am not entirely sure if I succeeded.
My apologies if some sarcasm was bleeding through.
