[PATCH v3] All arch: remove system call sys_sysctl

Tue Jun 16 13:07:34 AEST 2020
Since the commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"),
sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error.
We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years
and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this
interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they
probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any
longer.
So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

v2:
According to Kees Cook's suggestion, completely remove sys_sysctl on all arch
According to Eric W. Biederman's suggestion, update the commit log
V1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1591683605-8585-1-git-send-email-nixiaoming@huawei.com/
Delete the code of sys_sysctl and return -ENOSYS directly at the function entry
