If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Myungho Jung commit b94bf594cf8ed67cdd0439e70fa939783471597a upstream. timer_migration sysctl acts as a boolean switch, so the allowed values should be restricted to 0 and 1. Add the necessary extra fields to the sysctl table entry to enforce that.
