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.
