Memory pointed by 'nd_pmu->pmu.attr_groups' is allocated in function
'register_nvdimm_pmu' and is lost after 'kfree(nd_pmu)' call in function
'unregister_nvdimm_pmu'.

Yes, looks like a real issue, but also completely avoidable by using statically
defined groups.

My fault for not catching this earlier, but Kajol, why is nd_perf not using
statically defined sysfs attribute groups?

Applied and changed subject to:
nvdimm: Fix memleak of pmu attr_groups in unregister_nvdimm_pmu()

Also added fixes tag:
Fixes: 0fab1ba6ad6b ("drivers/nvdimm: Add perf interface to expose 
nvdimm performance stats")
