sysctl: Add size to register_sysctl

This commit adds table_size to register_sysctl in preparation for the
removal of the sentinel elements in the ctl_table arrays (last empty
markers). And though we do *not* remove any sentinels in this commit, we
set things up by either passing the table_size explicitly or using
ARRAY_SIZE on the ctl_table arrays.

We replace the register_syctl function with a macro that will add the
ARRAY_SIZE to the new register_sysctl_sz function. In this way the
callers that are already using an array of ctl_table structs do not
change. For the callers that pass a ctl_table array pointer, we pass the
table_size to register_sysctl_sz instead of the macro.
