Merge tag 'v6.5-rc1-sysctl-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "The changes for sysctl are in line with prior efforts to stop usage of
  deprecated routines which incur recursion and also make it hard to
  remove the empty array element in each sysctl array declaration.

  The most difficult user to modify was parport which required a bit of
  re-thinking of how to declare shared sysctls there, Joel Granados has
  stepped up to the plate to do most of this work and eventual removal
  of register_sysctl_table(). That work ended up saving us about 1465
  bytes according to bloat-o-meter. Since we gained a few bloat-o-meter
  karma points I moved two rather small sysctl arrays from
  kernel/sysctl.c leaving us only two more sysctl arrays to move left.

  Most changes have been tested on linux-next for about a month. The
  last straggler patches are a minor parport fix, changes to the sysctl
  kernel selftest so to verify correctness and prevent regressions for
  the future change he made to provide an alternative solution for the
  special sysctl mount point target which was using the now deprecated
  sysctl child element.

  This is all prep work to now finally be able to remove the empty array
  element in all sysctl declarations / registrations which is expected
  to save us a bit of bytes all over the kernel. That work will be
  tested early after v6.5-rc1 is out"
