Not really but since everything in the dev_attrs array is statically
defined in interface.c it was simpler to implement it this way.  To
assign it in driver.c, the array can be made non-static and an extern
added in driver.c, or the array definition can be moved to driver.c and
all the set and show functions be made non-static.  Is there a preference?

Thanks,
Drew
