An array of 48 pointers to "u8" eh? :-)

It happens to work, but you're using too much
space (specifically: 48 * sizeof(u8 *)) as a side effect.

Otherwise, the only comment I have is that we lose the tcp_diag
info.  Maybe create a "tcpdiag_put" method in there so we can
retain that.

I'm also not so religious anymore about retaining the existing
sysctl functionality to enable/disable ca algs.
