[PATCH] sysctl: fix sys_sysctl interface of ipc sysctls
Currently there is a regression and the ipc sysctls don't show up in the binary sysctl namespace. This patch adds sysctl_ipc_data to read data/write from the appropriate namespace and deliver it in the expected manner. [akpm@osdl.org: warning fix] Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
