[SCSI] sysfs: make group is_valid return a mode_t

We have a problem in scsi_transport_spi in that we need to customise
not only the visibility of the attributes, but also their mode.  Fix
this by making the is_visible() callback return a mode, with 0
indicating is not visible.

Also add a sysfs_update_group() API to allow us to change either the
visibility or mode of the files at any time on the fly.
