I was wrong here, the patchset just hadn't all hit the mailing lists.
I can't apply this patchset to anything.  I tried linux-next, net, and
net-next.  So it's hard to review.

It looks like ensure_safe_net_sysctl() never got update to use
table_size...

You could easily write a static checker test to print a warning any time
that ->procname is checked for NULL.  I have attached a Smatch check.
You would need to added to check_list.h and recompile.

net/sysctl_net.c:130 ensure_safe_net_sysctl() warn: checking ->procname 'ent->procname'
