In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range.  This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

    $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&amp;(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
    248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

This is the bloat-o-meter output comparing the old and new binary
compiled with the default Fedora config:

    # scripts/bloat-o-meter -d vmlinux.o.old vmlinux.o
    add/remove: 2/2 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 24/-188 (-164)

This patch is to remove the typedef sctp_scope_policy_t and keep
it's members as an anonymous enum.

It is also to define SCTP_SCOPE_POLICY_MAX to replace the num 3
in sysctl.c to make codes clear.

This patchset is to add SCTP_RECONFIG_SUPPORTED sockopt, it would
set and get asoc reconf_enable value when asoc_id is set, or it
would set and get ep reconf_enalbe value if asoc_id is 0.

It is also to add sysctl interface for users to set the default
value for reconf_enable.

After this patch, stream reconf will work.

proc_dostring() needs an initialized destination string, while the one
provided in proc_sctp_do_hmac_alg() contains stack garbage.

Thus, writing to cookie_hmac_alg would strlen() that garbage and end up
accessing invalid memory.

As we all know, the value of pf_retrans &gt;= max_retrans_path can
disable pf state. The variables of pf_retrans and max_retrans_path
can be changed by the userspace application.

Sometimes the user expects to disable pf state while the 2
variables are changed to enable pf state. So it is necessary to
introduce a new variable to disable pf state.

According to the suggestions from Vlad Yasevich, extra1 and extra2
are removed. The initialization of pf_enable is added.
