sysctl: Stop implicitly passing current into sysctl_table_root.lookup
Passing nsproxy into sysctl_table_root.lookup was a premature optimization in attempt to avoid depending on current. The directory /proc/self/sys has not appeared and if and when it does this code will need to be reviewed closely and reworked anyway. So remove the premature optimization.
