sysctl: Don't look at ctl_name and strategy in the generic code
The ctl_name and strategy fields are unused, now that sys_sysctl is a compatibility wrapper around /proc/sys. No longer looking at them in the generic code is effectively what we are doing now and provides the guarantee that during further cleanups we can just remove references to those fields and everything will work ok.
