[GIT PULL] sysctl updates for 3.4-rc1

[ebiederm@xmission.com (Eric W. Biederman)]

Linus,

please pull sysctl updates for v3.4-rc1 from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/sysctl.git master

This tree is against v3.3-rc1 aka dcd6c92267155e70a94b3927bce681ce74b80d1f
The topmost commit is 4e474a00d7ff746ed177ddae14fa8b2d4bad7a00

Highlights:
- 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.
