Linux: Deprecate <sys/sysctl.h> and sysctl
Now that there are no internal users of __sysctl left, it is possible to add an unconditional deprecation warning to <sys/sysctl.h>. To avoid a test failure due this warning in check-install-headers, skip the test for sys/sysctl.h. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
