Tejun Heo 3007e997de sysfs: use sysfs_mutex to protect the sysfs_dirent tree
As kobj sysfs dentries and inodes are gonna be made reclaimable,
i_mutex can't be used to protect sysfs_dirent tree.  Use sysfs_mutex
globally instead.  As the whole tree is protected with sysfs_mutex,
there is no reason to keep sysfs_rename_sem.  Drop it.

While at it, add docbook comments to functions which require
sysfs_mutex locking.
