For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler. Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.Cc: Alexey Dobriyan

Now that sys_sysctl is a wrapper around /proc/sys all of
the binary sysctl support elsewhere in the tree is

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.

While auditing proc_doulongvec_ms_jiffies_minmax() usage in kernel, I found
a bug in drivers/parport/procfs.c, incorrectly using sizeof(int) instead of
sizeof(unsigned long)Only 64bit arches are affected by this old bug.

The sysctl binary paths don't look as if they even code work, .data is not
filled in, and all of the proc_handlers look at extra1 and there is not
strategy routine.So just kill the binary paths.
In addition this patch removes the setting of extra1 on directories. It
doesn't look like the parport code ever examines it, and it's bad sysctl form.[bunk@kernel.org: remove parport_device_num()]

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.Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
