This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/ (local))

Remove sentinel element from cdrom_table

You should have the final entry as "}," so as to make any future
additions to the list to only contain that entry, that's long been the
kernel style for lists like this.
Will send a V2 with this included. Thx.

So your patches will just remove one line, not 2 and add 1, making it a
smaller diff.
indeed.

Hi Joel,

Thank you for your patch. I look forward to seeing V2, and will be happy
to review it.
Am following a reported oops. Once I straighten that out, I'll send out
a V2

Bet
Regards,
Phil
