    sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_lookup introducing find_entry and lookup_entry. · 076c3eed
    Eric W. Biederman 提交于
    Replace the helpers that proc_sys_lookup uses with helpers that work
    in terms of an entire sysctl directory.  This is worse for sysctl_lock
    hold times but it is much better for code clarity and the code cleanups
    to come.
    
    find_in_table is no longer needed so it is removed.
    
    find_entry a general helper to find entries in a directory is added.
    
    lookup_entry is a simple wrapper around find_entry that takes the
    sysctl_lock increases the use count if an entry is found and drops
    the sysctl_lock.
