I am in the process of cleaning up, and converting the binary sysctl sysctl call into a wrapper on top of the text based proc/sys. A first step in that process is to introduce a generic compat_sys_sysctl to reduce the number of places I have to touch. The following patcheset is the start of my series for handling that. The only architecture specific changes should be replace the current architecture name for it's 32bit compat syscall with compat_sys_sysctl, and deleting the architectures private 32bit compat syscall. The only requirement is that CONFIG_COMPAT be set when you need compat_sys_sysctl. These patches should just work, but an eyeball from someone who is familiar with the architecture specific details would be appreciated. I have only tested the 32bit compat code on x86_64.
