SVN rev 220011 on 2011-03-25 22:11:39Z by mdf
MFC r216060. This differs from the original commit in that it
preserves the KBI size of struct sysctl_oid. Also, on stable/8 the
compiler thinks that 'len' in sysctl_sysctl_name2oid() is used
uninitialized.
Do not hold the sysctl lock across a call to the handler. This fixes a
general LOR issue where the sysctl lock had no good place in the
hierarchy. One specific instance is #284 on
http://sources.zabbadoz.net/freebsd/lor.html .
