sysctl: Use options after --system
If sysctl saw the --system option it would immediately process the system files and exit, ignoring anything on the command line after it. This would mean, for example, if you wanted to use the --pattern option to filter out keys it would work if --pattern was before --system but not the other way around. I made a slight change from Simon's suggestion to process keys on the command line, so something like sysctl --system foo=bar also works, it seems like an odd way of running sysctl but it is valid in a way.
