module: sysfs: Add notes attributes through attribute_group

A kobject is meant to manage the lifecycle of some resource.
However the module sysfs code only creates a kobject to get a
"notes" subdirectory in sysfs.
This can be achieved easier and cheaper by using a sysfs group.
Switch the notes attribute code to such a group, similar to how the
section allocation in the same file already works.
