Subject: [PATCH 2/8] sysfs: CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED fix

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y changed its meaning recently and causes
regressions in working setups that had SYSFS_DEPRECATED disabled.

so rename it to SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 so that testers pick up the new
default via 'make oldconfig', even if their old .config's disabled
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED ...
