  87 * @value becomes the module parameter, or (prefixed by KBUILD_MODNAME and a
  88 * ".") the kernel commandline parameter.  Note that - is changed to _, so
  89 * the user can use "foo-bar=1" even for variable "foo_bar".
  90 *
  91 * @perm is 0 if the the variable is not to appear in sysfs, or 0444
  92 * for world-readable, 0644 for root-writable, etc.  Note that if it
  93 * is writable, you may need to use kparam_block_sysfs_write() around
  94 * accesses (esp. charp, which can be kfreed when it changes).
  95 *
  96 * The @type is simply pasted to refer to a param_ops_##type and a
  97 * param_check_##type: for convenience many standard types are provided but
  98 * you can create your own by defining those variables.
  99 *
 100 * Standard types are:
 101 *      byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong
 102 *      charp: a character pointer
 103 *      bool: a bool, values 0/1, y/n, Y/N.
 104 *      invbool: the above, only sense-reversed (N = true).

 387 * module_param_array_named - renamed parameter which is an array of some type
 388 * @name: a valid C identifier which is the parameter name
 389 * @array: the name of the array variable
 390 * @type: the type, as per module_param()
 391 * @nump: optional pointer filled in with the number written
 392 * @perm: visibility in sysfs
 393 *
 394 * This exposes a different name than the actual variable name.  See
 395 * module_param_named() for why this might be necessary.
