Linus Torvalds f8a8b94d06 Merge tag 'sysctl-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:

 - Remove "->procname == NULL" check when iterating through sysctl table
   arrays

   Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size
   and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. With all
   ctl_table sentinels gone, the additional check for ->procname == NULL
   that worked in tandem with the ARRAY_SIZE to calculate the size of
   the ctl_table arrays is no longer needed and has been removed. The
   sysctl register functions now returns an error if a sentinel is used.

 - Preparation patches for sysctl constification

   Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of
   proc_handler function pointers as they would reside in .rodata. The
   ctl_table arguments in sysctl utility functions are const qualified
   in preparation for a future treewide proc_handler argument
   constification commit.

 - Misc fixes

   Increase robustness of set_ownership by providing sane default
   ownership values in case the callee doesn't set them. Bound check
   proc_dou8vec_minmax to avoid loading buggy modules and give sysctl
   testing module a name to avoid compiler complaints.
