*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while
usually *-y suffix is used for kernel drivers (although *-objs works
for that purpose for now).

Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.

In a future patch, we're going to split file leases into their own
structure. Since a lot of the underlying machinery uses the same fields
move those into a new file_lock_core, and embed that inside struct
file_lock.

For now, add some macros to ensure that we can continue to build while
the conversion is in progress.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
  size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
  sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
  has been doing all this work.

  In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
  support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to
  remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/
  directory only.

  The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as
  those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect
  also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL.

  Let us recap the purpose of this work:

   - this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
     time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array

   - the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
     sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files

  Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to
  see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the
  struct ctl_table.

  Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have
  suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for
  v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for
  further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer
  as he has moved on to other projects and has had no time to help at
  all"

sv_refcnt is no longer useful.
lockd and nfs-cb only ever have the svc active when there are a non-zero
number of threads, so sv_refcnt mirrors sv_nrthreads.

nfsd also keeps the svc active between when a socket is added and when
the first thread is started, but we don't really need a refcount for
that.  We can simply not destroy the svc while there are any permanent
sockets attached.

So remove sv_refcnt and the get/put functions.
Instead of a final call to svc_put(), call svc_destroy() instead.
This is changed to also store NULL in the passed-in pointer to make it
easier to avoid use-after-free situations.

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/)

Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in
making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the
register sysctl call that expects a size.
