Subject: [PATCH net-2.6.25 9/11][INET] Merge sys.net.ipv4.ip_forward and sys.net.ipv4.conf.all.forwarding

From: Pavel Emelyanov <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 13:15:24 +0300

AFAIS these two entries should do the same thing - change the
forwarding state on ipv4_devconf and on all the devices.

I propose to merge the handlers together using ctl paths.

The inet_forward_change() is static after this and I move
it higher to be closer to other "propagation" helpers and
to avoid diff making patches based on { and } matching :)
i.e. - make them easier to read.
