Whack procctl(8)
...
It was supposed to provide a recovery mechanism against bugs in procfs's
long deprecated tracing capabilities.
Remove the tool as a prerequisite to axing the kernel side.
The tracing facility to use is ptrace(2).

remove procfs ctl interface
...
This interface has no in-tree consumers and has been more or less
non-functional for several releases.
Remove manpage note that the procfs special file 'mem' is grouped to
kmem. This hasn't been true since r81107.
Remove procfs' README file. It is an out of date duplication of the manpage
(quoth the README: "since the bsd kernel is single-processor...").
