[Devel] [PATCH 1/2] SYSCTL: root unregister routine introduced

This routine is required for SUNRPC sysctl's, which are going to be allocated,
processed and destroyed per network namespace context.
IOW, new sysctl root will be registered on network namespace creation and
thus have to unregistered before network namespace destruction.
