sysfs: use singly-linked list for sysfs_dirent tree
Make sysfs_dirent use singly linked list for its tree structure.
sysfs_link_sibling() and sysfs_unlink_sibling() functions are added to
handle simpler cases.  It adds some complexity and cpu cycle overhead
but reduced memory footprint is worthwhile on big machines.

This change reduces the sizeof sysfs_dirent from 104 to 88 on 64bit
and from 60 to 52 on 32bit.
