Consider turning off CONFIG_SYSFS_SYSCALL

Description:

The sysfs syscall has been marked obsolete since 2018 and not supported in libc but still included in the default config. There are alternatives in /proc for filesystem information.

Drawback is that some unknown applications might still rely on this system call.

Additional info:
