[Powerpc-utils-devel] [PATCH] scripts/snap: Ignore deprecated /proc/ network files

[Kamalesh B. <kam...@li...>]

Teach snap to ignore deprecated sysctl network files, while
gathering information from /proc. Reading deprecated file,
throws warnings in /var/log/message like:
kernel: process `snap' is using deprecated sysctl (syscall)
net.ipv6.neigh.default.retrans_time; Use net.ipv6.neigh.default.retrans_time_ms instead.`
