Merge tag 'sysctl-6.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados: - Move sysctls out of the kern_table array This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective subsystems. Only 5 (out of the original 50) will remain in kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle either sysctl or common arch variables. By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain control over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and reducing the likelihood of merge conflicts. - docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented in the check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to automatically identify if documentation is missing. * tag 'sysctl-6.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl: (23 commits) docs: Downgrade arm64 & riscv from titles to comment docs: Replace spaces with tabs in check-sysctl-docs docs: Remove colon from ctltable title in vm.rst docs: Add awk section for ucount sysctl entries docs: Use skiplist when checking sysctl admin-guide docs: nixify check-sysctl-docs sysctl: rename kern_table -> sysctl_subsys_table kernel/sys.c: Move overflow{uid,gid} sysctl into kernel/sys.c uevent: mv uevent_helper into kobject_uevent.c sysctl: Removed unused variable sysctl: Nixify sysctl.sh sysctl: Remove superfluous includes from kernel/sysctl.c sysctl: Remove (very) old file changelog sysctl: Move sysctl_panic_on_stackoverflow to kernel/panic.c sysctl: move cad_pid into kernel/pid.c sysctl: Move tainted ctl_table into kernel/panic.c Input: sysrq: mv sysrq into drivers/tty/sysrq.c fork: mv threads-max into kernel/fork.c parisc/power: Move soft-power into power.c mm: move randomize_va_space into memory.c ...
