This is an effective no-op in terms of user observable behaviour. By preventing the overwrite of non-null extra1/extra2 fields in addrconf_sysctl() we can enable the use of proc_dointvec_minmax(). This allows us to eliminate the constant min/max (1..255) trampoline function that is addrconf_sysctl_hop_limit(). This is nice because it simplifies the code, and allows future sysctls with constant min/max limits to also not require trampolines. We still can't eliminate the trampoline for mtu because it isn't actually a constant (it depends on other tunables of the device) and thus requires at-write-time logic to enforce range.
