[PATCH] sysctl: create sys/fs/binfmt_misc as an ordinary sysctl entry
binfmt_misc has a mount point in the middle of the sysctl and that mount point is created as a proc_generic directory. Doing it that way gets in the way of cleaning up the sysctl proc support as it continues the existence of a horrible hack. So instead simply create the directory as an ordinary sysctl directory. At least that removes the magic special case. [akpm@osdl.org: warning fix] Signed-off-by: Eric W.
