with your change that broke because beyond /proc/sys/ there are no real
proc entries anymore, there's no de->subdir directory for
xlate_proc_name() to find. While the latency tracer isnt upstream, this
change in semantics does not seem to be intended (the changelog is
certainly silent about it).

Use register_sysctl_table() for sysctls.
