The kernel test robot reports that commitc42ff46f97("ocfs2: simplify subdirectory registration with register_sysctl()") is broken, and results in kernel warning messages like sysctl table check failed: fs/ocfs2/nm Not a file sysctl table check failed: fs/ocfs2/nm No proc_handler sysctl table check failed: fs/ocfs2/nm bogus .mode 0555 and in fact this was already reported back in linux-next, but nobody seems to have reacted to that report. Possibly that original report only ever made it to the lkp list. The problem seems to be that the simplification didn't actually go far enough, and should have converted the whole directory path to the final sysctl file, rather than just the two first components. So take that last step.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
