  Modified files:
    sys/sys              sysctl.h 
  Log:
  Sysctl nodes are written to, so don't put them in the text section.
  
  Our write protection of the kernel text on i386's doesn't actually
  work in many cases:
  - use of the 4MB page completely breaks it.
  - CR0_WP isn't set until just before init is started, so the kernel
    text is not write protected during kernel initialization.
