I copied everyone who had put this into a defconfig and I will wait a
little more to see if anyone screams.  I think it is a safe guess that
several of the affected configurations are dead (or at least
unmaintained) as I received 17 bounces when copying everyone.

I'm not aware that we require the sysctl syscall somewhere on parisc,
so I think it's safe to remove the code.
