There is no need to declare two tables to just create directories,
this can be easily be done with a prefix path with register_sysctl().

Simplify this registration.

<title>sysctl: fix proc_dobool() usability</title>

<id>f1aa2eb5ea05ccd1fd92d235346e60e90a1ed949</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table-&gt;data, but sizeof(int)
in table-&gt;maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly.

This is unsafe for at least two reasons:
1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &amp;variable, .maxsize =
   sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable
   (see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely
   counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead.
2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given
   .maxsize &gt;= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool
   by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither
   an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent
   this.

Fix this by:
1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize ==
   sizeof(bool).
2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data
   pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and
   passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from
   bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example).
3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations.
4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from
   proc_douintvec, apparently...).
5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to
   sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

Fixes: a2071573d634 ("sysctl: introduce new proc handler proc_dobool")

<title>SUNRPC: Refactor RPC server dispatch method</title>

Currently, svcauth_gss_accept() pre-reserves response buffer space
for the RPC payload length and GSS sequence number before returning
to the dispatcher, which then adds the header's accept_stat field.

The problem is the accept_stat field is supposed to go before the
length and seq_num fields. So svcauth_gss_release() has to relocate
the accept_stat value (see svcauth_gss_prepare_to_wrap()).

To enable these fields to be added to the response buffer in the
correct (final) order, the pointer to the accept_stat has to be made
available to svcauth_gss_accept() so that it can set it before
reserving space for the length and seq_num fields.

As a first step, move the pointer to the location of the accept_stat
field into struct svc_rqst.

struct svc_serv_ops is about to be removed.

Neil Brown says:
&gt; I suspect svo_module can go as well - I don't think the thread is
&gt; ever the thing that primarily keeps a module active.

A random sample of kthread_create() callers shows sunrpc is the only
one that manages module reference count in this way.
