Merge tag 'sysctl-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:

 - Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/*

   Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size
   and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for
   net/, io_uring/, mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline
   through their respective subsystems making the next release the most
   likely place where the final series that removes the check for
   proc_name == NULL will land.

   This adds to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/.

 - Adjust ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification
     - Remove unused ctl_table function arguments
     - Move non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header
     - Make ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure

   Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by
   keeping the pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no
   ctl_tables where made const in this PR, the ground work for making
   that possible has started with these changes sent by Thomas
   Weißschuh.
