sysfs, kernfs: replace sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with ->priv
A directory sysfs_dirent points to the associated kobj. A regular or bin file points to the associated [bin_]attribute. This patch replaces sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with void * ->priv. This is to prepare for kernfs interface so that sysfs can specify the private data in the same way for directories and files. This lower debuggability but not by much - the whole thing was overlaid in a union anyway. If debuggability becomes an issue, we can later add ->priv accessors which explicitly check for the sysfs_dirent type and performs casting. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior difference.
