[PATCH] sysctl: implement sysctl_uts_string()

The problem: When using sys_sysctl we don't read the proper values for the
variables exported from the uts namespace, nor do we do the proper locking.

This patch introduces sysctl_uts_string which properly fetches the values and
does the proper locking.
