[PATCH] test_power: fix a bug in setting module parameter values

From: Andrey Gelman
Date: Sun Jan 27 2013 - 15:16:33 EST


When the kernel loads a module, module params are processed
prior to calling module_init. As a result, setting module param
value should not have side effects, at least as long as the
module has not been initialized.
