sysfs: remove BUG_ON() from sysfs_remove_group()

It's possible that the caller of sysfs_remove_group messed up and passed in an attribute group that was not really registered to this kobject.  But don't panic for such a foolish error, spit out a warning about what happened, and continue on our way safely.
