Reset restart.  This is patch is total nonsense.

- You are using register_sysctl_table which as I believe I have
  mentioned is a deprecated compatibility wrapper.  The point of
  spring house cleaning is to get off of the deprecated functions
  isn't it?

- You are using the old nasty form for creating directories instead
  of just passing in a path.

- None of this is even remotely necessary.  The directories
  are created automatically if you just register their entries.
