------------------------------------------------------
Subject: sysctl: remove sys_sysctl support from the hpet timer driver
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

In the binary sysctl interface the hpet driver was claiming to be the cdrom
driver.  This is a no-no so remove support for the binary interface.
