The dac_mmap_min_addr belongs to min_addr.c, move it into
its own file from /kernel/sysctl.c. In the previous Linux kernel
boot process, sysctl_init_bases needs to be executed before
init_mmap_min_addr, So, register_sysctl_init should be executed
before update_mmap_min_addr in init_mmap_min_addr.

I haven't chased all of the Kconfig deps to see if there is a problem,
but please provide a quick explanation in the commit description about
why it is okay to drop the CONFIG_MMU check.

According to the compilation condition in security/Makefile:

              obj-$(CONFIG_MMU)            += min_addr.o

if CONFIG_MMU is not defined, min_addr.c would not be included in the compilation process.
So,it is okay to drop the CONFIG_MMU check.
  static int __init init_mmap_min_addr(void)
  {
+       register_sysctl_init("vm", min_addr_sysctl_table);
         update_mmap_min_addr();

         return 0;
