sysctl: Don't look at ctl_name and strategy in the generic code
The ctl_name and strategy fields are unused, now that sys_sysctl
is a compatibility wrapper around /proc/sys. No longer looking
at them in the generic code is effectively what we are doing
now and provides the guarantee that during further cleanups
we can just remove references to those fields and everything
will work ok.
