From 5475e8f03c80bbce7b43a57d861f5acc44a60b22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xiaoming Ni Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2022 22:12:18 -0800 Subject: random: move the random sysctl declarations to its own file kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain. To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just care about the core logic. So move the random sysctls to their own file and use register_sysctl_init().
