I have compiled it. If we will see <linux/sysfs.h>
"int sysfs_create_group(struct kobject *kobj, const struct
attribute_group *grp)" and
"void sysfs_remove_group(struct kobject *kobj, const struct
attribute_group *grp);"
Here, passing parameter attribute_group are constant. So I have
changed non-const as const.
