Subject: [PATCH 23/23] sysctl: Remove the last of the generic binary sysctl support
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2009 04:22:10 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1257682930-31401-23-git-send-email-ebiederm@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <m14op5jjo4.fsf@fess.ebiederm.org>
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
Now that all of the users stopped using ctl_name and strategy it
is safe to remove the fields from struct ctl_table, and it is safe
to remove the stub strategy routines as well.
