Ancient hardware, but still in active use. These tend to have very little
RAM, but they both enable CONFIG_PROC_FS.

You actually have to enable CONFIG_PROC_FS to enable
CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL at this point.  CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL is just an
emulation of the old interface built on top of /proc.

Thank you for the feedback.
