    Subject[PATCH 29/29] sysctl: Add register_sysctl for normal sysctl users
    Date
    The plan is to convert all callers of register_sysctl_table
    and register_sysctl_paths to register_sysctl. The interface
    to register_sysctl is enough nicer this should make the callers
    a bit more readable. Additionally after the conversion the
    230 lines of backwards compatibility can be removed.
