sysfs: Implement sysfs_getattr & sysfs_permission

With the implementation of sysfs_getattr and sysfs_permission
sysfs becomes able to lazily propogate inode attribute changes
from the sysfs_dirents to the vfs inodes.   This paves the way
for deleting significant chunks of now unnecessary code.

While doing this we did not reference sysfs_setattr from
sysfs_symlink_inode_operations so I added along with
sysfs_getattr and sysfs_permission.
