Subject: [GIT PULL] Please pull sysctl fixes


Hi Linus,

When I looked into sysctls last week I ended up with a patchkit fixing
various issues. This branch has the 2.6.33 worthy versions of the
patches, fixing more serious issues. The other stuff is for 2.6.34

- Only print compat sysctls once using an external hash table
as discussed. This gives better compatibility to all possible
old sysctl users.
- Fix nasty race in zone_list_fallback sysctl

Please pull from

  ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git sysctl

to get

Andi Kleen (2):
      SYSCTL: Print binary sysctl warnings (nearly) only once
      SYSCTL: Add a mutex to the page_alloc zone order sysctl
