Clean up the sysfs documentation such that it is in the same format as
described in Documentation/ABI/README. Mainly, the patch moves the
attribute names to the 'What:' field. This might be useful for scripting
and tracking changes in the ABI.

Applied to the docs tree, thanks.
In general, I've been setting aside the sysfs ABI doc patches to see what
the reaction is to them. I'm trying to catch up with the ones that
haven't been merged via another tree, but it wouldn't be entirely
surprising if I miss one. Please don't hesitate to resend anything that
doesn't appear in linux-next in the near future.
Thanks,
jon
