[sysfs] Fix memory leak.
From Thomas Spatzier. First reported by Martin Schwidefsky.
Entries in the dentry_cache allocated for objects in sysfs are not freed when
the objects in sysfs are deleted. This effect is due to inconsistent reference
counting in sysfs. Furthermore, when calling sysfs_remove_dir the deleted
directory was not removed from its parent's list of children. The attached
patch should fix the problems.
