Subject: [PATCH net-2.6.25 2/3]sysctl: prepare core tables to point to netns variables
Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 16:10:49 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47594659.2050505@openvz.org> (raw)

Some of ctl variables are going to be on the struct 
net. Here's the way to adjust the ->data pointer on the
ctl_table-s to point on the right variable.

Since some pointers still point on the global variables,
I keep turning the write bits off on such tables.

This looks to become a common procedure for net sysctls,
so later parts of this code may migrate to some more
generic place.
