fs: move namei sysctls to its own file
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain. To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just care about the core logic. So move namei's own sysctl knobs to its own file. Other than the move we also avoid initializing two static variables to 0 as this is not needed: * sysctl_protected_symlinks * sysctl_protected_hardlinks Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211129205548.605569-8-mcgrof@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Antti Palosaari <crope@iki.fi> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: Iurii Zaikin <yzaikin@google.com> Cc: "J.
