John Hubbard 6575aeab72 Documentation: better locations for sysfs-pci, sysfs-tagging
sysfs-pci and sysfs-tagging were mis-filed: their locations within
Documentation/ implied that they were related to file systems. Actually,
each topic is about a very specific *use* of sysfs, and sysfs *happens*
to be a (virtual) filesystem, so this is not really the right place.

It's jarring to be reading about filesystems in general and then come
across these specific details about PCI, and tagging...and then back to
general filesystems again.

Move sysfs-pci to PCI, and move sysfs-tagging to networking. (Thanks to
Jonathan Corbet for coming up with the final locations.)

===============================
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
======================
See these manuals for documentation about the VFS layer itself and how its
algorithms work.
