At some point someone wrote sysfs_readdir to insert a cursor
into the list of sysfs_dirents to ensure that sysfs_readdir would
restart properly. That works but it is complex code and tends
to be expensive.
The same effect can be achieved by keeping the sysfs_dirents in
inode order and using the inode number as the f_pos. Then
when we restart we just have to find the first dirent whose inode
number is equal or greater then the last sysfs_dirent we attempted
to return.
Removing the sysfs directory cursor also allows the remove of
all of the mysterious checks for sysfs_type(sd) != 0. Which
were nonbovious checks to see if a cursor was in a directory list.
tj: offset marker for EOF is changed from UINT_MAX to INT_MAX to avoid
overflow in case offset is 32bit.
