[PATCH] sysctl: remove support for CTL_ANY
There are currently no users in the kernel for CTL_ANY and it only has effect on the binary interface which is practically unused. So this complicates sysctl lookups for no good reason so just remove it. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
