Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
Remove empty sentinel element from test_table and test_table_unregister.

Basic test to ensure that empty directories can be registered and that
they in turn can serve as a base dir for other registrations.
Add one test to the sysctl selftest module. It first registers an empty
directory under "empty_add" and then uses that as a base to register
another empty dir.
The sysctl bash script then checks that "empty_add" is present and that
there an empty directory within it.

Test that target gets created by register_sysctl_mount_point and that no
additional target can be created "on top" of a permanently empty sysctl
table.
Create a mount point target (mnt) in the sysctl test driver; try to
create another on top of that (mnt_error). Output an error if
"mnt_error" is present when we run the sysctl selftests.

test_sysctl.c is expected to be used as a module, but since
it does not use module_init(), it never be registered as
a module and not appeared under /sys/module/.
In the result, the selftests/sysctl/sysctl.sh always fails
to find the test module and is skipped.
This makes test_sysctl.c initialized as a module by module_init()
and allow sysctl.sh to find the test module is loaded.

The kernel has only two users of proc_do_large_bitmap(), the kernel CPU
watchdog, and the ip_local_reserved_ports. Refer to watchdog_cpumask
and ip_local_reserved_ports in Documentation for further details on
these. When you input a large buffer into these, when it is larger than
PAGE_SIZE- 1, the input data gets misparsed, and the user get
incorrectly informed that the desired input value was set. This commit
implements a test which mimics and exploits that use case, it uses a
bitmap size, as in the watchdog case. The bitmap is used to test the
bitmap proc handler, proc_do_large_bitmap().
The next commit fixes this issue.
