thanks - the -rt tree just got rebased to latest -hrt-dynticks, which 
doesnt have the sysctl anymore. (but we might reintroduce it in the 
future, i'll pick up your fix in that case.)

In general new sysctl shouldn't get any numbers at all. Just use 0
or so or 999. Distributions and other patches have mangled the 
numerical name so excessively that it is fairly useless for
any newer numbers. I would suggest to just drop them.
