Documentation/filesystems is, like much of the rest of the kernel's documentation, a jumble of unorganized information. Split the documentation into categories and try to bring some order to the top-level index.rst files. No text changes other than a few section-introductory blurbs; this is all just moving stuff around.

Filesystems in the Linux kernel
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
This under-development manual will, some glorious day, provide
|
|
comprehensive information on how the Linux virtual filesystem (VFS) layer
|
|
works, along with the filesystems that sit below it. For now, what we have
|
|
can be found below.

|
Core VFS documentation
|
|
======================
|
|
|

|
algorithms work.
