Subject: Documentation: rapidio: move sysfs interface to ABI

Hi

In Documentation/rapidio/sysfs.txt, there is a description of the sysfs
interface which could be moved to Documentation/ABI (as a bus interface under
testing).

Would such a change be useful?

The ABI documentation format looks like the following:

What: (the full sysfs path of the attribute)
Date: (date of creation)
KernelVersion: (kernel version it first showed up in)
Contact: (primary contact)
Description: (long description on usage)

I am doing this in an exercise to move sysfs ABI interfaces (which are
documented) to their right place i.e. in Documentation/ABI along with the rest.

Aishwarya
