Is there a compelling reason for changing all the parameter names?

I would prefer not to do that. It is incompatible for our current
user base, and really does not seem like an improvement. Those names
only appear in the context of `realtime', so the `rt_' is completely
redundant. For example...

# modprobe realtime gid=29
# sysctl -w security/realtime/mlock=0

Also, you forgot to update the documentation.
