Remove them. Remove a smattering of ctl_names used in sysctl paths, and kill the ctl_names in the recently added mach-bcmring. mach-bcmring never should have had sysctl entries with .ctl_name set. The binary sysctl interface has been frozen for a long time before that code was merged, to prevent probmes with conflicts and lack of testing. The sysctl_check code would have caught this if anyone had ever tested it that way. So I have simply dropped the binary sysctl support instead of adding another compat entry into sysctl_binary.c. Going through /proc/sys/reboot/warm will still work. Cc: Leo Chen Cc: Russell King Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
