Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fsverity: move sysctl registration out of signature.c

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

Currently the registration of the fsverity sysctls happens in
signature.c, which couples it to CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES.

This makes it hard to add new sysctls unrelated to builtin signatures.

Also, some users have started checking whether the directory
/proc/sys/fs/verity exists as a way to tell whether fsverity is
supported.  This isn't the intended method; instead, the existence of
/sys/fs/$fstype/features/verity should be checked, or users should just
try to use the fsverity ioctls.  Regardlesss, it should be made to work
as expected without a dependency on CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES.

Therefore, move the sysctl registration into init.c.  With
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES, nothing changes.  Without it, but
with CONFIG_FS_VERITY, an empty list of sysctls is now registered.
