From f221e726bf4e082a05dcd573379ac859bfba7126 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2008 22:04:23 -0700 Subject: sysctl: simplify ->strategy name and nlen parameters passed to ->strategy hook are unused, remove them. In general ->strategy hook should know what it's doing, and don't do something tricky for which, say, pointer to original userspace array may be needed (name).
