[PATCH net-next v6 6/8] netfilter: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array

From: Joel Granados <j.granados at samsung.com>
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will
reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory
bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
* Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs
* Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look
like a sentinel. This is not longer needed and is safe after commit
c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz") added
the array size to the ctl_table registration
* Remove the need for having __NF_SYSCTL_CT_LAST_SYSCTL as the
sysctl array size is now in NF_SYSCTL_CT_LAST_SYSCTL
* Remove extra element in ctl_table arrays declarations
