Subject: [PATCH 5/5] alienware-wmi: Improves sysfs groups creation

Devices with hdmi_mux, amplifier or deepslp quirks create a sysfs group
for each available feature. To accomplish this, helper create/remove
functions were called on module init, but they had the following
problems:

 - Create helpers called remove helpers on failure, which in turn tried
   to remove the sysfs group that failed to be created
 - If group creation failed mid way, previous successfully created groups
   were not cleaned up
 - Module exit only removed hdmi_mux group

To improve this, drop all helpers in favor of two helpers that make use
of sysfs_create_groups/sysfs_remove_groups to cleanly create/remove
groups at module init/exit.

I have a question. Do the created sysfs groups get removed when their
kobj reference count goes to 0? I ask because I want to know if this is
a bug fix.
