When registering ctl_table entries with CTL_FLAGS_SHOW_RANGE flag set,
it will populate the reserved range table entries with the proper
sysctl parameters to show the range the those ctl_table entries.
When unregistering the ctl_table, we also need to clear the reserved
range table entries to avoid referencing memory that will be freed.
