[PATCH v2 1/4] networking: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array

[Joel Granados via B4 Relay <devnull+j.granados.samsung.com@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Joel Granados <j.granados@xxxxxxxxxxx>

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 sentinel element from ctl_table structs.
* Remove extra element in ctl_table arrays declarations
* Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look
  like a sentinel. 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
* Replace the for loop stop condition that tests for procname == NULL with
  one that depends on array size
* Removed the "-1" that adjusted for having an extra empty element when
  looping over ctl_table arrays
* Removing the unprivileged user check in ipv6_route_sysctl_init is
  safe as it is replaced by calling ipv6_route_sysctl_table_size;
  introduced in commit c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to
  register_net_sysctl_sz")
* Replace empty array registration with the register_net_sysctl_sz call.
