It turns out that arch/x86/events/intel/core.c makes use of "empty"
attributes.
static struct attribute *empty_attrs;
__init int intel_pmu_init(void)
{
struct attribute **extra_skl_attr = &empty_attrs;
struct attribute **extra_attr = &empty_attrs;
struct attribute **td_attr = &empty_attrs;
struct attribute **mem_attr = &empty_attrs;
struct attribute **tsx_attr = &empty_attrs;
...
That breaks the assumption __first_visible() that expects that if
grp->attrs is set then grp->attrs[0] must also be set and results in
backtraces like:

Check for non-empty attributes array before calling is_visible().
