This patch series moves sysctls of vm_table in kernel/sysctl.c to
places where they actually belong, and do some related code clean-ups.
After this patch series, all sysctls in vm_table have been moved into its
own files, meanwhile, delete vm_table.

All the modifications of this patch series base on
linux-next(tags/next-20241219). To test this patch series, the code was
compiled with both the CONFIG_SYSCTL enabled and disabled on arm64 and
x86_64 architectures. After this patch series is applied, all files
under /proc/sys/vm can be read or written normally.

Changes in v4:
 - change all "static struct ctl_table" type into
   "static const struct ctl_table" type in patch1~10,12,13,14
 - simplify result of rpcauth_cache_shrink_count() in patch11

Changes in v3:
 - change patch1~10, patch14 title suggested by Joel Granados
 - change sysctl_stat_interval to static type in patch1
 - add acked-by from Paul Moore in patch7
 - change dirtytime_expire_interval to static type in patch9
 - add acked-by from Anna Schumaker in patch11

Changes in v2:
 - fix sysctl_max_map_count undeclared issue in mm/nommu.c for patch6
 - update changelog for patch7/12, suggested by Kees/Paul
 - fix patch8, sorry for wrong changes and forget to built with NOMMU
 - add reviewed-by from Kees except patch8 since patch8 is wrong in v1
 - add reviewed-by from Jan Kara, Christian Brauner in patch12
