Rajat Jain c855cf2759 sysfs: Fix internal_create_group() for named group updates
There are a couple of problems with named group updates in the code
today:

* sysfs_update_group() will always fail for a named group, because
  internal_create_group() will try to create a new sysfs directory
  unconditionally, which will ofcourse fail with -EEXIST.

* We can leak the kernfs_node for grp->name if some one tries to:
  - rename a group (change grp->name), or
  - update a named group, to an unnamed group

It appears that the whole purpose of sysfs_update_group() was to
allow changing the permissions or visibility of attributes and not
the names. So make it clear in the comments, and allow it to update
an existing named group.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
