The driver core can register and cleanup sysfs groups already.
Make use of that functionality to simplify the error handling and
cleanup.

Also avoid a UAF race during unregistering where the sysctl attributes
were usable after the info struct was freed.

I've added your patches #2, #3, #4 and #5 of this series to the fbdev git tree.
I tend to not take patch #1 as already explained there...

Thanks!
Helge
