This patch series moves sysctls of vm_table in kernel/sysctl.c to
places where they actually belong, and do some related code clean-ups.
After this patch series, all sysctls in vm_table have been moved into its
own files, meanwhile, delete vm_table.

All the modifications of this patch series base on
linux-next(tags/next-20241219). To test this patch series, the code was
compiled with both the CONFIG_SYSCTL enabled and disabled on arm64 and
x86_64 architectures. After this patch series is applied, all files
under /proc/sys/vm can be read or written normally.

Changes in v4:
  - change all "static struct ctl_table" type into
    "static const struct ctl_table" type in patch1~10,12,13,14
  - simplify result of rpcauth_cache_shrink_count() in patch11

Changes in v3:
  - change patch1~10, patch14 title suggested by Joel Granados
  - change sysctl_stat_interval to static type in patch1
  - add acked-by from Paul Moore in patch7
  - change dirtytime_expire_interval to static type in patch9
  - add acked-by from Anna Schumaker in patch11

Changes in v2:
  - fix sysctl_max_map_count undeclared issue in mm/nommu.c for patch6
  - update changelog for patch7/12, suggested by Kees/Paul
  - fix patch8, sorry for wrong changes and forget to built with NOMMU
  - add reviewed-by from Kees except patch8 since patch8 is wrong in v1
  - add reviewed-by from Jan Kara, Christian Brauner in patch12

This patchset looks strange. There seems to be 15 patches, but there are
30 e-mails in the thread? You can also see this when you look at it in
lore [1]. And they are different repeated e-mails (mutt does not
de-duplicate them). Also `b4 shazam ...` does not work. What happened?
Did you send it twice with the same mail ID? Am I the only one seeing
this?

I would suggest the following (hopefully you are using b4):
1. Check to see how things will be sent with b4. `b4 send --resend -o OUTPUT_DIR`
    If you see 30 emails in that dir from your patchset then something is
    still wrong.
2. After you make sure that everything is in order. Do the resend
    without bumping the version up (leave it at version 4)

Best

I'm very sorry, due to my mistake, 15 patches were sent twice.

Sorry, again! I will resend these 15 patches, and leave it at version 4
