As the number of FADump sysfs files increases it is hard to manage all of them inside /sys/kernel directory. It's better to have all the FADump related sysfs files in a dedicated directory /sys/kernel/fadump. But in order to maintain backward compatibility a symlink has been added for every sysfs that has moved to new location. As the FADump sysfs files are now part of a dedicated directory there is no need to prefix their name with fadump_, hence sysfs file names are also updated. For example fadump_enabled sysfs file is now referred as enabled. Also consolidate ABI documentation for all the FADump sysfs files in a single file Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-fadump.
