This is not generic so it can stay in this file.

This is generic so we can share it, I suggest we just rename this
for now to sysctl_neg_one, export it to a symbol namespace,
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(sysctl_neg_one, SYSCTL) and then import it with
MODULE_IMPORT_NS(SYSCTL)

We want to wrap this around with CONFIG_SYSCTL, so a cleaner solution
is something like this:

diff --git a/kernel/Makefile b/kernel/Makefile
index a42ac3a58994..689718351754 100644

And as per Eric, this is not needed, we can simplify this more, as noted
below.

You want instead something like::

        struct ctl_table_header *srt;

	srt = register_sysctl("kernel", hung_task_sysctls);

And just #ifdef this around CONFIG_SYSCTL.
