[BUG] lack of /proc/net/ax25 with 2.6.24-rc5

[Bernard Pidoux]

With 2.6.24-rc5 there is no /proc/net/ax25

Here is an extract from dmesg after boot :

[PATCH] sysctl: Fix ax25 checks

/proc/sys/net/ax25?

use ax25 for this bug to show up.

Thank you for catching this.

[Bernard Pidoux]

Eric,

I applied your patch and now I have all /proc/sys/net/ax25
created and initialized as before.

Thanks.
