Subject: ipc: remove the now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_table array
Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2024 16:57:52 +0100
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty
elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce
the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64
bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/)
Remove the sentinels from ipc_sysctls and mq_sysctls
