Subject: [PATCH 7/7] sysfs: Remove transitional attribute group alias macros

Remove transitional macros used to alias named and visible sysfs attribute
group definitions. These were temporarily introduced to ease migration but
are now redundant due to the adoption of the new encapsulated
NAMED_ATTRIBUTE_* macros across all relevant drivers.
