ax.25: x.25: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array
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%[email protected]/) Avoid a buffer overflow when traversing the ctl_table by ensuring that AX25_MAX_VALUES is the same as the size of ax25_param_table. This is done with a BUILD_BUG_ON where ax25_param_table is defined and a CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE guard in the unnamed enum definition as well as in the ax25_dev_device_up and ax25_ds_set_timer functions. The overflow happened when the sentinel was removed from ax25_param_table. The sentinel's data element was changed when CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE was undefined. This had no adverse effects as it still stopped on the sentinel's null procname but needed to be addressed once the sentinel was removed.
