- Enable the deprecated sysctl system call. sys_sysctl uses

+ sys_sysctl uses binary paths that have been found challenging

+ using paths with ascii names is now the primary path to this

- Nothing has been using the binary sysctl interface for some
- time now so nothing should break if you disable sysctl syscall
- support, and your kernel will get marginally smaller.
+ Almost nothing using the binary sysctl interface so if you are
+ trying to save some space it is probably safe to disable this,

- Unless you have an application that uses the sys_sysctl interface
- you should probably say N here.
+ If unsure say Y here.
