Peter,

to help avoid conflicts I spinned up a sysctl-next tree to collect
different cleanups going on kernel/sysctl.c. I can drop 
ebb891f03580 ("sched: Move deadline_period sysctls to deadline.c")
but I think we'd still run into conflicts as other sysctls are
trimmed out. Would you be OK in me taking in eb77cf1c151c
("sched/deadline: Remove unused def_dl_bandwidth") to avoid this
conflict?
