Problem with module parameters and sysfs

[Dmitry Torokhov]

Hi,

It seems that the following patch

http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/diffs/kernel/params.c%401.12?nav=index.html|ChangeSet@-3d|cset@xxxxxx

broke module parameters in sysfs for the case when driver is built
as a module:

[root@core dtor]# ls -la /sys/module/i8042/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root            0 Oct 26 19:20 .
drwxr-xr-x   54 root     root            0 Oct 27 00:28 ..
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root            0 Oct 26 19:20 parameters

[root@core dtor]# ls -la /sys/module/psmouse/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root            0 Oct 27 00:21 .
drwxr-xr-x   54 root     root            0 Oct 27 00:28 ..
-r--r--r--    1 root     root         4096 Oct 27 00:21 refcnt
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root            0 Oct 27 00:21 sections

psmouse is built as a module while i8042 is compiled in.
