Oh, I can see now why he doesn't like that, I've never seen such directory until
you mentioned it, why should it be so hidden, and why should we split filesystem
information into different locations.

IMHO, if someone want to take a look into filesystem documentation, the person
goes directly to Documentation/filesystems, I honestly think splitting
information into two different directories are wrong, and, even though you point
to there in some other place, it is still bad, sounds like a RPG book... Start
here...now go to page X...now go to page Y...now go to page Z.

I can re-format the documentation to the same format from sysfs-fs-ext4, but I
believe keeping it under Documentation/filesystems is still the best to do. To
be honest, I actually think we should create an XFS directory under it and put
everything xfs related there.
