Kernel: Rename /sys/kernel/variables => /sys/kernel/conf

The name "variables" is a bit awkward and what the directory entries are
really about is kernel configuration so let's make it clear with the new
name.

 - Write access is forbidden to the `/sys/kernel/power_state` node.
 - Read accesses is forbidden by default to all nodes in `/sys/kernel` directory, except for:
  `df`, `interrupts`, `keymap`, `memstat`, `processes`, `stats` and `uptime`.

 - Open access is forbidden to all device nodes except for `/dev/full`, `/dev/null`, `/dev/zero`, `/dev/random` and various
  other TTY/PTY devices (not including Kernel virtual consoles).
 - Executing SUID binaries is forbidden.
