Subject: removal of sysfs wext extension broke on F16

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=875328

blamed for breaking wireless.
https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=35b2a113cb0298d4f9a1263338b456094a414057

apparantly the initscripts used the sysfs directory existance as a
check, so maybe either back this out or bring back just the subdirs.

Dave.
