86  * is writable, you may need to use kparam_block_sysfs_write() around

89  * The @type is simply pasted to refer to a param_ops_##type and a
90  * param_check_##type: for convenience many standard types are provided but
91  * you can create your own by defining those variables.
92  *
93  * Standard types are:
94  *	byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong
95  *	charp: a character pointer
96  *	bool: a bool, values 0/1, y/n, Y/N.
