    sysctl: stop exporting register_sysctl_table · 19c4e618
    Joel Granados authored
    We make register_sysctl_table static because the only function calling
    it is in fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c (__register_sysctl_base). We remove it
    from the sysctl.h header and modify the documentation in both the header
    and proc_sysctl.c files to mention "register_sysctl" instead of
    "register_sysctl_table".
    
    This plus the commits that remove register_sysctl_table from parport
