Documentation: ABI: rename sysfs-devices-cache_disable properly
Rename sysfs-devices-cache_disable to sysfs-devices-system-cpu, in order to keep a stricter correlation between a sysfs directory and its documentation.

5Description: These files exist in every cpu's cache index directories.
6 There are currently 2 cache_disable_# files in each
7 directory. Reading from these files on a supported
8 processor will return that cache disable index value
9 for that processor and node. Writing to one of these
10 files will cause the specificed cache index to be disabled.

12 Currently, only AMD Family 10h Processors support cache index
13 disable, and only for their L3 caches. See the BIOS and
14 Kernel Developer's Guide at
