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.
