^^^ : These are all false positives as non-sentinel procname gets
set to a string on the register sysctl path.

^^^ : procname gets set to NULL but is not used to register. just as a
temp ctl_table. Can be ignored.
> net/core/neighbour.c | neigh_sysctl_register | (struct \
> ctl_table)->procname | 0
^^^ : This is one is tricky. I had handled the case where the sentinel
is cleared by setting procname to NULL.

^^^ : This one is another one that was caught.
For this file I noticed that we setup the entire ctl_table for both privileged
and unprivileged users. It seems that we could just skip all the setup
needed for the unprivileged user. Please tell me and I can maybe come
with a patch for that.

In total you caught 8 valid errors.
Thx again.
