Cody Schafer already fixed binary file creation for attribute groups, see [1].
This patch makes the appropriate changes for binary file removal
of attribute groups.

bin_attributes created/updated in create_files() (such as those listed
via (struct device).attribute_groups) were not placed under the
specified group, and instead appeared in the base kobj directory.

Fix this by making bin_attributes use creating code similar to normal
attributes.

A quick grep shows that no one is using bin_attrs in a named attribute
group yet, so we can do this without breaking anything in usespace.

Note that I do not add is_visible() support to
bin_attributes, though that could be done as well.

sysfs assumed 0755 for all newly created directories and kernfs
inherited it.  This assumption is unnecessarily restrictive and
inconsistent with kernfs_create_file[_ns]().  This patch adds @mode
parameter to kernfs_create_dir[_ns]() and update uses in sysfs
accordingly.  Among others, this will be useful for implementations of
the planned ->mkdir() method.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior differences.

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.

Introduce kernfs interface for finding, getting and putting
sysfs_dirents.

* sysfs_find_dirent() is renamed to kernfs_find_ns() and lockdep
  assertion for sysfs_mutex is added.

* sysfs_get_dirent_ns() is renamed to kernfs_find_and_get().

* Macro inline dancing around __sysfs_get/put() are removed and
  kernfs_get/put() are made proper functions implemented in
  fs/sysfs/dir.c.

While the conversions are mostly equivalent, there's one difference -
kernfs_get() doesn't return the input param as its return value.  This
change is intentional.  While passing through the input increases
writability in some areas, it is unnecessary and has been shown to
cause confusion regarding how the last ref is handled.

After kernfs_ops and sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size addition, the
distinction between SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR and SYSFS_KOBJ_ATTR is only
necessary while creating files to decide which kernfs_ops to use.
Afterwards, they behave exactly the same.

This patch removes SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR along with sysfs_is_bin().
sysfs_add_file[_mode_ns]() are updated to take bool @is_bin instead of
@type.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.  This completely
isolates the distinction between the two sysfs file types in the sysfs
layer proper.

Introduce kernfs interface to manipulate a directory which takes and
returns sysfs_dirents.

create_dir() is renamed to kernfs_create_dir_ns() and its argumantes
and return value are updated.  create_dir() usages are replaced with
kernfs_create_dir_ns() and sysfs_create_subdir() usages are replaced
with kernfs_create_dir().  Dup warnings are handled explicitly by
sysfs users of the kernfs interface.

sysfs_enable_ns() is renamed to kernfs_enable_ns().

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

v2: Dummy implementation for !CONFIG_SYSFS updated to return -ENOSYS.

v3: kernfs_enable_ns() added.

v4: Refreshed on top of "sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling, take #2"
    so that this patch removes sysfs_enable_ns().

Introduce kernfs removal interfaces - kernfs_remove() and
kernfs_remove_by_name[_ns]().

These are just renames of sysfs_remove() and sysfs_hash_and_remove().
No functional changes.

v2: Dummy kernfs_remove_by_name_ns() for !CONFIG_SYSFS updated to
    return -ENOSYS instead of 0.

Given a sysfs_dirent, there is no reason to have multiple versions of
removal functions.  A function which removes the specified
sysfs_dirent and its descendants is enough.

This patch intorduces [__}sysfs_remove() which replaces all internal
variations of removal functions.  This will be the only removal
function in the planned new sysfs_dirent based interface.

Some internal sysfs functions which take explicit namespace argument
are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of @name which
is contrary to the established convention.  This is confusing and
error-prone especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without
causing compilation warning.

Swap the positions of @name and @ns in the following internal
functions.

 sysfs_find_dirent()
 sysfs_rename()
 sysfs_hash_and_remove()
 sysfs_name_hash()
 sysfs_name_compare()
 create_dir()

This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.
