From ec6a52668d0bbc6d648e978c327150254bf1ce7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:35:23 -0800 Subject: sysctl: Add ctl_table chains into cstring paths For any component of table passed to __register_sysctl_paths that actually serves as a path, add that to the cstring path that is passed to __register_sysctl_table. The result is that for most calls to __register_sysctl_paths we only pass a table to __register_sysctl_table that contains no child directories. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
