The instructions for mounting sysfs are inconsistent in instructing to
create the directory '/sysfs' but then mounting sysfs to /sys.
Also, indentation is slightly off.

 If this is not mounted, do the following.

Are there really any systems out there that won't have sysfs mounted at
this point?  Oh well, the instructions might as well make sense, applied
to the docs tree.

Thanks,

That's what I thought. If it is there, it could at least be correct. But
I'm not opposing removing it either.
