[Devel] [PATCH 04/10] sysctl: Fix neighbour table sysctls.

- In ipv6 ndisc_ifinfo_syctl_change so it doesn't depend on binary
  sysctl names for a function that works with proc.

- In neighbour.c reorder the table to put the possibly unused entries
  at the end so we can remove them by terminating the table early.

- In neighbour.c kill the entries with questionable binary sysctl
  handling behavior.

- In neighbour.c if we don't have a strategy routine remove the
  binary path.  So we don't the default sysctl strategy routine
  on data that is not ready for it.
