  bytes according to bloat-o-meter. Since we gained a few bloat-o-meter
  karma points I moved two rather small sysctl arrays from
  kernel/sysctl.c leaving us only two more sysctl arrays to move left.

  Most changes have been tested on linux-next for about a month. The
  last straggler patches are a minor parport fix, changes to the sysctl
