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@bombadil.infradead.org/) To avoid lots of small commits, this commit brings together network changes from (as they appear in MAINTAINERS) LLC, MPTCP, NETROM NETWORK LAYER, PHONET PROTOCOL, ROSE NETWORK LAYER, RXRPC SOCKETS, SCTP PROTOCOL, SHARED MEMORY COMMUNICATIONS (SMC), TIPC NETWORK LAYER and NETWORKING [IPSEC] * Remove sentinel element from ctl_table structs. * Replace empty array registration with the register_net_sysctl_sz call in llc_sysctl_init * Replace the for loop stop condition that tests for procname == NULL with one that depends on array size in sctp_sysctl_net_register * Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look like a sentinel in xfrm_sysctl_init. This is not longer needed and is safe after commit c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz") added the array size to the ctl_table registration * Use a table_size variable to keep the value of ARRAY_SIZE Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
