+ * core_param - define a historical core kernel parameter.
+ * @name: the name of the cmdline and sysfs parameter (often the same as var)
+ * @var: the variable
+ * @type: the type (for param_set_##type and param_get_##type)
+ * @perm: visibility in sysfs
+ *
+ * core_param is just like module_param(), but cannot be modular and
+ * doesn't add a prefix (such as "printk.").  This is for compatibility
+ * with __setup(), and it makes sense as truly core parameters aren't
+ * tied to the particular file they're in.
