[PATCH v2] sysctl: handle table->maxlen properly for proc_dobool

[Muchun Song <songmuchun@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Setting ->proc_handler to proc_dobool at the same time setting ->maxlen
to sizeof(int) is counter-intuitive, it is easy to make mistakes.  For
robustness, fix it by reimplementing proc_dobool() properly.
