sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function to change the symlink name

Browse source 
The __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function creates a symlink
to a kobject but doesn't provide an option to change the symlink file
name.

This patch adds a wrapper function compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj
that extends the __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj functionality
which allows function caller to customize the symlink name.
