Eric Biggers d171c85d74 fsverity: use register_sysctl_init() to avoid kmemleak warning
commit ee5814dddefbaa181cb247a75676dd5103775db1 upstream.

Since the fsverity sysctl registration runs as a builtin initcall, there
is no corresponding sysctl deregistration and the resulting struct
ctl_table_header is not used.  This can cause a kmemleak warning just
after the system boots up.  (A pointer to the ctl_table_header is stored
in the fsverity_sysctl_header static variable, which kmemleak should
detect; however, the compiler can optimize out that variable.)  Avoid
the kmemleak warning by using register_sysctl_init() which is intended
for use by builtin initcalls and uses kmemleak_not_leak().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
