Subject: printk: move printk sysctl to printk/sysctl.c
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just
care about the core logic.
So move printk sysctl from kernel/sysctl.c to kernel/printk/sysctl.c. Use
register_sysctl() to register the sysctl interface.
