Tejun Heo 785a162d14 sysfs: make sysfs_file_ops() follow ignore_lockdep flag
375b611e60 ("sysfs: remove sysfs_buffer->ops") introduced
sysfs_file_ops() which determines the associated file operation of a
given sysfs_dirent.  As file ops access should be protected by an
active reference, the new function includes a lockdep assertion on the
sysfs_dirent; unfortunately, I forgot to take attr->ignore_lockdep
flag into account and the lockdep assertion trips spuriously for files
which opt out from active reference lockdep checking.

Rename fs/sysfs/dir.c::ignore_lockdep() to sysfs_ignore_lockdep() and
move it to fs/sysfs/sysfs.h and make sysfs_file_ops() skip lockdep
assertion if sysfs_ignore_lockdep() is true.
