Documentation: update cgroupfs mount point

According to commit 676db4af04 ("cgroupfs: create /sys/fs/cgroup to
mount cgroupfs on") the canonical mountpoint for the cgroup filesystem
is /sys/fs/cgroup.  Hence, this should be used in the documentation.

Accounting groups can be created by first mounting the cgroup filesystem.
# mkdir /cgroups
# mount -t cgroup -ocpuacct none /cgroups
# mount -t cgroup -ocpuacct none /sys/fs/cgroup
With the above step, the initial or the parent accounting group
becomes visible at /cgroups. At bootup, this group includes all the
tasks in the system. /cgroups/tasks lists the tasks in this cgroup.
/cgroups/cpuacct.usage gives the CPU time (in nanoseconds) obtained by
this group which is essentially the CPU time obtained by all the tasks

New accounting groups can be created under the parent group /cgroups.
New accounting groups can be created under the parent group /sys/fs/cgroup.
# cd /cgroups
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup
# mkdir g1
# echo $$ > g1
The above steps create a new group g1 and move the current shell
process (bash) into it. CPU time consumed by this bash and its children
can be obtained from g1/cpuacct.usage and the same is accumulated in
/cgroups/cpuacct.usage also.
/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct.usage also.
cpuacct.stat file lists a few statistics which further divide the
CPU time obtained by the cgroup into user and system times. Currently
