Liav A 60f7d61ad2 Kernel/SysFS: Fix parent directory hierarchy with symbolic links ...

We should actually start counting from the parent directory and not from
the symbolic link as it will represent a wrong count of hops from the
actual mountpoint.

The symlinks in /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char worked only by luck,
because I have set it to the wrong parent directory which is the
/sys/dev directory, so with the symlink it was 3 hops to /sys, together
with the root directory, therefore, everything seemed to work.

Now that the device symlinks in /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char are set
to the right parent directory and we start measure hops from root
directory with the parent directory of a symlink, everything seem to
work correctly now.
