genirq/msi: Simplify sysfs handling
The sysfs handling for MSI is a convoluted maze and it is in the way of supporting dynamic expansion of the MSI-X vectors because it only supports a one off bulk population/free of the sysfs entries. Change it to do: 1) Creating an empty sysfs attribute group when msi_device_data is allocated 2) Populate the entries when the MSI descriptor is initialized 3) Free the entries when a MSI descriptor is detached from a Linux interrupt. 4) Provide functions for the legacy non-irqdomain fallback code to do a bulk population/free. This code won't support dynamic expansion. This makes the code simpler and reduces the number of allocations as the empty attribute group can be shared.
