Commit 9255782f70 ("sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj
function to change the symlink name") made this function a wrapper
around a new non-underscored function, which is a bit odd. The normal
naming convention is the other way around: the underscored function is
the wrappee, and the non-underscored function is the wrapper.
There's only one single user (well, two call-sites in that user) of the
more limited double underscore version of this function, so just remove
the oddly named wrapper entirely and just add the extra NULL argument to
the user.
I considered just doing that in the merge, but that tends to make
history really hard to read.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
