We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly. This patch introduces kernfs_ops which hosts methods kernfs users implement and updates fs/sysfs/file.c such that sysfs_kf_*() functions populate kernfs_ops and kernfs_file_*() functions call the matching entries from kernfs_ops. kernfs_ops contains the following groups of methods. * seq_show() - for kernfs files which use seq_file for reads. * read() - for direct read implementations. Used iff seq_show() is not implemented. * write() - for writes. * mmap() - for mmaps. Notes: * sysfs_elem_attr->ops is added so that kernfs_ops can be accessed from sysfs_dirent. kernfs_ops() helper is added to verify locking and access the field. * SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_(SEQ_SHOW|MMAP) added. sd->s_attr->ops is accessible only while holding active_ref and there are cases where we want to take different actions depending on which ops are implemented. These two flags cache whether the two ops are implemented for those. * kernfs_file_*() no longer test sysfs type but chooses different behaviors depending on which methods in kernfs_ops are implemented. The conversions are trivial except for the open path. As kernfs_file_open() now decides whether to allow read/write accesses depending on the kernfs_ops implemented, the presence of methods in kobjs and attribute_bin should be propagated to kernfs_ops. sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated so that it propagates presence / absence of the callbacks through _empty, _ro, _wo, _rw kernfs_ops.
