sysfs: use singly-linked list for sysfs_dirent tree
Make sysfs_dirent use singly linked list for its tree structure. sysfs_link_sibling() and sysfs_unlink_sibling() functions are added to handle simpler cases. It adds some complexity and cpu cycle overhead but reduced memory footprint is worthwhile on big machines. This change reduces the sizeof sysfs_dirent from 104 to 88 on 64bit and from 60 to 52 on 32bit. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
