Only comments on the commit message.
1. Can you please put this and your 4/4 patch together. Since 4/4 comes
is a result of this 3/4 patch, then they can be in one.
2. Please re-write the commit message to state what you did: Something
like : "Remove the now unneeded check for ctl_table_size; it is safe
to do so as it is now part of ctl_table_header.
3. Remember to mention the removal of the sentinel when you merge 3/4
and 4/4
