110  * @perm is 0 if the the variable is not to appear in sysfs, or 0444
111  * for world-readable, 0644 for root-writable, etc.  Note that if it
112  * is writable, you may need to use kernel_param_lock() around
113  * accesses (esp. charp, which can be kfreed when it changes).
114  *
115  * The @type is simply pasted to refer to a param_ops_##type and a
116  * param_check_##type: for convenience many standard types are provided but
117  * you can create your own by defining those variables.
118  *
119  * Standard types are:
120  *	byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong
121  *	charp: a character pointer
122  *	bool: a bool, values 0/1, y/n, Y/N.
123  *	invbool: the above, only sense-reversed (N = true).
