If we register each feature in its own feature code file using 
register() to register the sysctl interface. To avoid merge conflicts 
when different features modify sysctl.c at the same time.
that is, try to Avoid mixing code with multiple features in the same 
code file.

For example, the multiple file interfaces defined in sysctl.c by the 
hung_task feature can  be moved to hung_task.c.

Perhaps later, without centralized sysctl.c ?
Is this better?

Thanks
