gpio: sysfs: fix gpio device-attribute leak
commit 0915e6feb38de8d3601819992a5bd050201a56fa upstream. The gpio device attributes were never destroyed when the gpio was unexported (or on export failures). Use device_create_with_groups() to create the default device attributes of the gpio class device. Note that this also fixes the attribute-creation race with userspace for these attributes. Remove contingent attributes in export error path and on unexport. Fixes: d8f388d8dc8d ("gpio: sysfs interface") Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v2.6.27+ Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
