Subject: [PATCH net-next 11/19] net ipv6: Don't use sysctl tables with .child entries.

From: [email-masked] (Eric W. Biederman)
Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:37:09 -0700

The sysctl core no longer natively understands sysctl tables
with .child entries.

Split the ipv6_table to remove the .child entries.
