docs/sysfs: Update directory/kobject documentation.
Some time ago the way how sysfs stores a pointer to a kobject corresponding to a directory was modified. This patch brings the documentation again in sync with the implementation.

Sysfs internally stores the kobject that owns the directory in the

->d_fsdata pointer of the directory's dentry. This allows sysfs to do

reference counting directly on the kobject when the file is opened and

Sysfs internally stores a pointer to the kobject that implements a
|
||||
directory in the sysfs_dirent object associated with the directory. In
|
||||
the past this kobject pointer has been used by sysfs to do reference
|
||||
counting directly on the kobject whenever the file is opened or closed.
|
||||
With the current sysfs implementation the kobject reference count is
|
||||
only modified directly by the function sysfs_schedule_callback().
