sysfs: move struct sysfs_dirent to private header
struct sysfs_dirent is private to the fs/sysfs/ subtree. It is
not even referenced as an opaque structure outside of that subtree.
The following patch moves the declaration from include/linux/sysfs.h to
fs/sysfs/sysfs.h, making it clearer that nothing else in the kernel
dereferences it.
I have been running this patch for years. Please integrate and forward
upstream if there are no objections.
