doc: Update doc about journalling layer
Documentation of journalling layer in
Documentation/DocBook/filesystems.tmpl speaks about JBD layer. Since
that is going away, update the documentation to speak about JBD2. Also
update the parts that have changed since someone last touched the
document and remove some parts which are just misleading and outdated.

sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling
With the previous changes, sysfs regular file code is ready to handle
bin files too.  This patch makes bin files share the regular file
path.

* sysfs_create/remove_bin_file() are moved to fs/sysfs/file.c.

* sysfs_init_inode() is updated to use the new sysfs_bin_operations
  instead of bin_fops for bin files.

* fs/sysfs/bin.c and the related pieces are removed.

This patch shouldn't introduce any behavior difference to bin file
accesses.

Overall, this unification reduces the amount of duplicate logic, makes
behaviors more consistent and paves the road for building simpler and
more versatile interface which will allow other subsystems to make use
of sysfs for their pseudo filesystems.

v2: Stale fs/sysfs/bin.c reference dropped from
    Documentation/DocBook/filesystems.tmpl.  Reported by kbuild test
    robot.

[PATCH] docbook: make a filesystems book
Make a filesystems DocBook book/file by moving all filesystems info from
kernel-api.tmpl.  Will also merge journal-api.tmpl into it soon (with
permission from Roger Gammans).  Localizes filesystem info and reduces size
of the huge (produced) kernel-api output files.
