[PATCH 05/29] sysctl: Make the directories have nlink == 1

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Thu Jan 26 2012 - 23:48:55 EST


I goofed when I made sysctl directories have nlink == 0.
nlink == 0 means the directory has been deleted.
nlink == 1 meands a directory does not count subdirectories.

Use the default nlink == 1 for sysctl directories.
