Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/7] security: Remove the now superfluous sentinel
 element from ctl_table array

Hey

This is the only patch that I have not seen added to the next tree.
I'll put this in the sysctl-next
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl.git/log/?h=sysctl-next
for testing. Please let me know if It is lined up to be upstream through
another path.

Best
