Subject: Re: [PATCH 2.6.27.3 usbcore] Move __module_param_call(nousb) to immediately after declaration of nousb.

Hello.

I tried on Fedora 9 (gcc (GCC) 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8)),
and I got the same result.

Just applying http://lkml.org/lkml/diff/2008/10/24/240/1 :

I think the possible causes are either

 (a) my patch is incorrect.
 (b) symbol table handling is incorrect.
