<content type='text'>
For consistency drop &amp; in front of every proc_handler.  Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys  .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code.  Remove them.

The frv sysctl tables can only be used from proc so kill
the sysctl numbers.

It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

name and nlen parameters passed to -&gt;strategy hook are unused, remove
them.  In general -&gt;strategy hook should know what it's doing, and don't
do something tricky for which, say, pointer to original userspace array
may be needed (name).

AFAICT pm_send_all is a nop when noone uses pm_register...

Hmm.. can we just force CONFIG_PM_LEGACY=n, and see what happens?

Or maybe this is better idea? It may break build somewhere, but it
should be easy to fix... (it builds here, i386 and x86-64).

<title>[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0b4d414714f0d2f922d39424b0c5c82ad900a381</id>
<content type='text'>
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

With unique binary numbers setting insert_at_head to insert yourself at the
head of sysctl list and thus override existing sysctl entries serves no point.
