While C99 converting the ctl_table initializers I realized that the binary
sysctl numbers were in conflict with the binary values under CTL_KERN.
Including CTL_KERN KERN_VERSION as used by glibc.  So I just removed the
sysctl binary interface for these values, as it was unsupportable.

Luckily these sysctl were inserted at the end of the sysctl list so this bug
was not visible to userspace.

The assignment of binary numbers for sys_sysctl use was in shambles and
despite requiring methods.  Nothing was implemented on the sys_sysctl side.

So this patch gives a mercy killing to the sys_sysctl support for
powermanagment on mips/au1000.

This convters the sysctl ctl_tables to use C99 initializers.  While I was
looking at it I discovered it was using a portion of the sysctl binary
addresses space under CTL_KERN KERN_OSTYPE which was completely inappropriate.
 So I completely removed all of the sysctl binary names, to remove and avoid
the ABI conflict.

By not using the enumeration in sysctl.h (or even understanding it) the SN
platform placed their arch specific xpc directory on top of CTL_KERN and only
because they didn't have 4 entries in their xpc directory got lucky and didn't
break glibc.

This is totally irresponsible.  So this patch entirely removes sys_sysctl
support from their sysctl code.  Hopefully they don't have ascii name
conflicts as well.

And now that they have no ABI numbers add them to the end instead of the
sysctl list instead of the head so nothing else will be overridden.

There is no need for open files in /proc/sys/XXX to hold a reference count on
the module that provides the file to prevent module unload races.  While there
is code active in the module p->used in the sysctl_table_header is
incremented, preventing the sysctl from being unregisted.  Once the sysctl is
unregistered it cannot be found.  Open files are also not a problem as they
revalidate the sysctl information and bump p->used before accessing module
code.

So setting de->owner is unnecessary, makes for a bad example and gets in my
way of removing ctl_table->de.

There has not been much maintenance on sysctl in years, and as a result is
there is a lot to do to allow future interesting work to happen, and being
ambitious I'm trying to do it all at once :)

The patches in this series fall into several general categories.

- Removal of useless attempts to override the standard sysctls

- Registers of sysctl numbers in sysctl.h so someone else does not use
  the magic number and conflict.

- C99 conversions so it becomes possible to change the layout of
  struct ctl_table without breaking everything.

- Removal of useless claims of module ownership, in the proc dir entries

- Removal of sys_sysctl support where people had used conflicting sysctl
  numbers. Trying to break glibc or other applications by changing the
  ABI is not cool.  9 instances of this in the kernel seems a little
  extreme.

- General enhancements when I got the junk I could see out.

This patch:

Since x25 uses unique binary numbers inserting yourself at the head of the
search list for sysctls so you can override already registered sysctls is
pointless.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

AUTH_UNIX authentication (the standard with NFS) has a limit of 16 groups ids.
 This causes problems for people in more than 16 groups.

So allow the server to map a uid into a list of group ids based on local
knowledge rather depending on the (possibly truncated) list from the client.

If there is no process on the server responding to upcalls, the gidlist in the
request will still be used.

Add support for using a filesystem UUID to identify and export point in the
filehandle.

For NFSv2, this UUID is xor-ed down to 4 or 8 bytes so that it doesn't take up
too much room.  For NFSv3+, we use the full 16 bytes, and possibly also a
64bit inode number for exports beneath the root of a filesystem.

When generating an fsid to return in 'stat' information, use the UUID (hashed
down to size) if it is available and a small 'fsid' was not specifically
provided.
