[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 1/4] doc, xen: document hypervisor sysfs nodes for xen



Today only a few sysfs nodes under /sys/hypervisor/ are documented
for Xen in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-hypervisor-pmu.

Add the remaining Xen sysfs nodes under /sys/hypervisor/ in a new
file Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-hypervisor-xen and add the Xen
specific sysfs docs to the MAINTAINERS file.

V3:
  - added hint for hidden values where appropriate (Andrew Cooper)

V2:
  - rename file to Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-hypervisor-xen in
    order to reflect Xen dependency
  - leave pmu entries in old file under testing (Boris Ostrovsky)
