Commit 57b8ff070f98 ("driver core: add devm_device_add_group()
and friends") has added the the managed version for creating
sysfs group files.

Use devm_device_add_group instead of sysfs_create_group and
remove the relative sysfs_remove_group and goto label.

This changes order of operations and ultimately may cause use-after-free
as memory for ad7877 structure will be freed before we remove
attributes.
