Subject: [PATCH] kheaders: Move from proc to sysfs

The kheaders archive consisting of the kernel headers used for compiling
bpf programs is in /proc. However there is concern that moving it here
will make it permanent. Let us move it to /sys/kernel as discussed [1].

Please adjust Kconfig prompt.
tristate "Enable kernel header artifacts through /proc/kheaders.tar.xz"


"depends on PROC_FS" -> "depends on SYSFS"

Sorry to miss these config updates. I will update the patch and resend.

It is in a un-rebasable-tree already, sorry. A patch on top is fine.

I think it would be cleaner to take it out, squash and reapply.
