Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Eric Biederman: - Rewrite of sysctl for speed and clarity. Insert/remove/Lookup in sysctl are all now O(NlogN) operations, and are no longer bottlenecks in the process of adding and removing network devices. sysctl is now focused on being a filesystem instead of system call and the code can all be found in fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c. Hopefully this means the code is now approachable. Much thanks is owed to Lucian Grinjincu for keeping at this until something was found that was usable. - The recent proc_sys_poll oops found by the fuzzer during hibernation is fixed. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/sysctl: (36 commits) sysctl: protect poll() in entries that may go away sysctl: Don't call sysctl_follow_link unless we are a link. sysctl: Comments to make the code clearer. sysctl: Correct error return from get_subdir sysctl: An easier to read version of find_subdir sysctl: fix memset parameters in setup_sysctl_set() sysctl: remove an unused variable sysctl: Add register_sysctl for normal sysctl users sysctl: Index sysctl directories with rbtrees. sysctl: Make the header lists per directory. sysctl: Move sysctl_check_dups into insert_header sysctl: Modify __register_sysctl_paths to take a set instead of a root and an nsproxy sysctl: Replace root_list with links between sysctl_table_sets. sysctl: Add sysctl_print_dir and use it in get_subdir sysctl: Stop requiring explicit management of sysctl directories sysctl: Add a root pointer to ctl_table_set sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_readdir in terms of first_entry and next_entry sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_lookup introducing find_entry and lookup_entry. sysctl: Normalize the root_table data structure. sysctl: Factor out insert_header and erase_header ...
