[PATCH v2 06/15] parport: Remove the now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_table array

From: Joel Granados <j.granados at samsung.com>

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

Remove the unneeded ctl_tables that were used to register intermediate
parport directories; only the path is needed at this point. From
parport_device_sysctl_table we removed: devices_root_dir, port_dir,
parport_dir and dev_dir. From parport_default_sysctl_table we removed:
default_dir, parport_dir and dev_dir. Reduce the size by one of the
ctl_table arrays that were not removed

Assign different sizes to the vars array in parport_sysctl_table
depending on CONFIG_PARPORT_1284; this is necessary now that the sysctl
register function uses ARRAY_SIZE to calculate the elements within.
Remove the sentinel element from parport_sysctl_template,
parport_device_sysctl_table and parport_default_sysctl_table.
