When building with CONFIG_SYSFS=n, the build error below is triggered:
ld: drivers/power/supply/power_supply_core.o:(.data+0x0): undefined
reference to `power_supply_attr_group'
The problem is that power_supply_attr_group is needed in
power_supply_core.c but defined in power_supply_sysfs.c, which is only
targeted with CONFIG_SYSFS=y. Therefore, move the extern declaration into
the #ifdef block that checks for CONFIG_SYSFS, and define an empty static
const struct otherwise. This is safe because the macro __ATRIBUTE_GROUPS in
power_supply_core.c will expand into an empty attribute_group array.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
