sysfs, kernfs: make sysfs_dirent definition public
sysfs_dirent includes some information which should be available to
kernfs users - the type, flags, name and parent pointer. This patch
moves sysfs_dirent definition from kernfs/kernfs-internal.h to
include/linux/kernfs.h so that kernfs users can access them.
The type part of flags is exported as enum kernfs_node_type, the flags
kernfs_node_flag, sysfs_type() and kernfs_enable_ns() are moved to
include/linux/kernfs.h and the former is updated to return the enum
type. sysfs_dirent->s_parent and ->s_name are marked explicitly as
public.
This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.
v2: Flags exported too and kernfs_enable_ns() definition moved.
v3: While moving kernfs_enable_ns() to include/linux/kernfs.h, v1 and
v2 put the definition outside CONFIG_SYSFS replacing the dummy
implementation with the actual implementation too. Unfortunately,
this can lead to oops when !CONFIG_SYSFS because
kernfs_enable_ns() may be called on a NULL @sd and now tries to
dereference @sd instead of not doing anything. This issue was
reported by Yuanhan Liu.
