Interesting question.

Are you adding one/some module parameters to vt.c ?
I don't see any there.


I have usbcore built-in (not a loadable module), and I still see
in /sys/module/usbcore/parameters these files:

blinkenlights
old_scheme_first
usbfs_snoop
use_both_schemes

but usbcore is "defined" as containing a list of .o files
in drivers/usb/core/Makefile.
