Xie Yongji b27ee76c74 vduse: Fix NULL pointer dereference on sysfs access
The control device has no drvdata. So we will get a
NULL pointer dereference when accessing control
device's msg_timeout attribute via sysfs:

[ 132.841881][ T3644] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000f8

[ 132.881847][ T3644] entry_INT80_compat (arch/x86/entry/entry_64_compat.S:419)

To fix it, don't create the unneeded attribute for
control device anymore.

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.
