Merge tag 'sysctl-6.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl

Pull sysctl update from Joel Granados:

 - Avoid evaluating non-mount ctl_tables as a sysctl_mount_point by
   removing the unlikely (but possible) chance that the permanently
   empty ctl_table array shares its address with another ctl_table

 - Update Joel Granados' contact info in MAINTAINERS

* tag 'sysctl-6.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl:
  MAINTAINERS: update email for Joel Granados
