[PATCH v8 1/5] configfs: Allow dynamic group creation

[Daniel Baluta <daniel.baluta@intel.com>]

We don't want to hardcode default groups at subsystem
creation time. We export:
	* configfs_register_group
	* configfs_unregister_group
to allow drivers to programatically create/destroy groups
later, after module init time.

This is needed for IIO configfs support.
