+ * Traditionally, struct ctl_table arrays have been terminated by an "empty"
+ * sentinel element (specifically, one with .procname == NULL).
+ *
+ * Linux 6.6 began migrating away from this, adding register_sysctl_sz() so
+ * that callers could provide the size directly, and redefining
+ * register_sysctl() to just call register_sysctl_sz() with the array size. It
+ * retained support for the terminating element so that existing callers would
+ * continue to work.
+ *
+ * Linux 6.11 removed support for the terminating element, instead interpreting
+ * it as a real malformed element, and rejecting it.
+ *
+ * In order to continue support older kernels, we retain the terminating
+ * sentinel element for our sysctl tables, but instead detect availability of
+ * register_sysctl_sz(). If it exists, we pass it the array size -1, stopping
+ * the kernel from trying to process the terminator. For pre-6.6 kernels that
+ * don't have register_sysctl_sz(), we just use register_sysctl(), which can
+ * handle the terminating element as it always has.
