sysfs: move struct sysfs_dirent to private header

struct sysfs_dirent is private to the fs/sysfs/ subtree.  It is
not even referenced as an opaque structure outside of that subtree.

The following patch moves the declaration from include/linux/sysfs.h to
fs/sysfs/sysfs.h, making it clearer that nothing else in the kernel
dereferences it.

I have been running this patch for years.  Please integrate and forward
upstream if there are no objections.
