When CONFIG_DQL is not enabled, dql_group should be treated as a dead
declaration. However, its current extern declaration assumes the linker
will ignore it, which is generally true across most compiler and
architecture combinations.

But in certain cases, the linker still attempts to resolve the extern
struct, even when the associated code is dead, resulting in a linking
error. For instance the following error in loongarch64:

>> loongarch64-linux-ld: net-sysfs.c:(.text+0x589c): undefined reference to `dql_group'

Modify the declaration of the dead object to be an empty declaration
instead of an extern. This change will prevent the linker from
attempting to resolve an undefined reference.
