kobject: Provide macros to initialize 'struct kobj_attribute'

Browse source

Currently the generic __ATTR*() macros are used to initialize kobject
attributes. These are not able to handle the upcoming piece-by-piece
constification of the attribute callback handlers.

Add dedicated macros of kobject attributes. For now these are the same
as the generic macros, but they will change soon. Users will be
converted to these macros as part of the constification, but it is
expected that they will be used generally in the future.
