+ * struct attribute_group - data structure used to declare an attribute group.
+ * @name:      Optional: Attribute group name
+ *             If specified, the attribute group will be created in
+ *             a new subdirectory with this name.
+ * @is_visible:        Optional: Function to return permissions associated with an
+ *             attribute of the group. Will be called repeatedly for each
+ *             attribute in the group. Only read/write permissions as well as
+ *             SYSFS_PREALLOC are accepted. Must return 0 if an attribute is
+ *             not visible. The returned value will replace static permissions
+ *             defined in struct attribute or struct bin_attribute.
+ * @attrs:     Pointer to NULL terminated list of attributes.
+ * @bin_attrs: Pointer to NULL terminated list of binary attributes.
+ *             Either attrs or bin_attrs or both must be provided.
