Turns out it was easier said than done when I asked Janne to move the
attribute. And all led drivers with custom attributes currently suffer
from this race.

Janne, you'll need to apply patch below and then set the groups field of
the led_devs before registering them. You can use the ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS
macro in the following way:

	static struct attribute *gt683r_led_attrs[] = {
       		&dev_attr_msi_mode.attr,
       		NULL,
	};
	ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS(gt683r_led);

and then set .groups to gt683r_led_groups.

I have started fixing some of the other led drivers and I'll try to
submit a series (including the below patch) later today.

Thanks,
Johan

Subject: [PATCH] leds: add led-class attribute-group support

Allow led-class devices to be created with optional attribute groups.

This is needed in order to allow led drivers to create custom device
attributes in a race-free manner.
