Here are some notes about documenting sysfs.conf
* sysfs(2) is about the syscall and isn't helpful in this context
* sysfs(5) (in manpages package) explains a little about sysfs, but not
how to interact with it.
* The kernel documentation
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt is
targetted at people writing sysfs interfaces and mostly not useful, but
mentions that interfaces need to be documented in ABI
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/stable/ and that might be
useful to mention as a place where users can read about how to interact
with various parts.
* The default delivered sysfs.conf file has some comments at the top
about general syntax and examples.
* should document /etc/sysfs.d/ and how to use it (load order, etc)
* should maybe explain the difference between sysfs and sysctl
So I think a sysfs.conf manpage could be pretty simple, mostly the
comments already in the default file and some pointers to the other places.
