Subject: sysctl: A more obvious version of grab_header.
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3cc3e04636d603778d921854b84ae7bd34a349a2;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

sysctl: A more obvious version of grab_header.

Instead of relying on sysct_head_next(NULL) to magically
return the right header for the root directory instead
explicitly transform NULL into the root directories header.
