kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode. Nothing can make the situation any worse. Let's
take the chance to name things properly.
This patch performs the following renames.
* s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/
* s/sysfs_elem_symlink/kernfs_elem_symlink/
* s/sysfs_elem_attr/kernfs_elem_file/
* s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/
* s/sd/kn/ in kernfs proper
* s/parent_sd/parent/
* s/target_sd/target/
* s/dir_sd/parent/
* s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/
* misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above
Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them. All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial. While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.
This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.
- mic / gpio renames were missing. Spotted by kbuild test robot.

kernfs inherited "security.*" xattr support from sysfs. This patch
extends xattr support to "trusted.*" using simple_xattr_*(). As
trusted xattrs are restricted to CAP_SYS_ADMIN, simple_xattr_*() which
uses kernel memory for storage shouldn't be problematic.
Note that the existing "security.*" support doesn't implement
get/remove/list and the this patch only implements those ops for
"trusted.*". We probably want to extend those ops to include support
for "security.*".
This patch will allow using kernfs from cgroup which requires
"trusted.*" xattr support.

fs/sysfs/symlink.c::sysfs_delete_link() tests @sd->s_flags for
SYSFS_FLAG_NS. Let's add kernfs_ns_enabled() so that sysfs doesn't
have to test sysfs_dirent flag directly. This makes things tidier for
kernfs proper too.
This is purely cosmetic.
v2: To avoid possible NULL deref, use noop dummy implementation which
always returns false when !CONFIG_SYSFS.

kernfs is being updated to allow multiple sysfs_dirent hierarchies so
that it can also be used by other users. Currently, inode number is
allocated using a global ida, sysfs_ino_ida; however, inos for
different hierarchies should be handled separately.
This patch makes ino allocation per kernfs_root. sysfs_ino_ida is
replaced by kernfs_root->ino_ida and sysfs_new_dirent() is updated to
take @root and allocate ino from it. ida_simple_get/remove() are used
instead of sysfs_ino_lock and sysfs_alloc/free_ino().

Move core symlink code to fs/kernfs/symlink.c. fs/sysfs/symlink.c now
only contains sysfs wrappers around kernfs interfaces. The respective
declarations in fs/sysfs/sysfs.h are moved to
fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h.
This is pure relocation.

Core sysfs implementation will be separated into kernfs so that it can
be used by other non-kobject users.
This patch creates fs/kernfs/ directory and makes boilerplate changes.
kernfs interface will be directly based on sysfs_dirent and its
forward declaration is moved to include/linux/kernfs.h which is
included from include/linux/sysfs.h. sysfs core implementation will
be gradually separated out and moved to kernfs.
This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.
v2: mount.c added.
