An odd question, since I was waiting for you to do exactly that!

Rather than go around again, I have:
1) Split the patch into one which changes the attr functions, and one
   which adds the uevent file.
2) Fixed the title of the (second) patch to "module: add
   /sys/module/<name>/uevent files"
3) Fixed up the three checkpatch.pl errors (sure, 2 were just code
   moves, but we're slowly neatening things).

Here they are below, back-to-back.

Thanks,
Rusty.

Subject: module: change attr callbacks to take struct module_kobject

This simplifies the next patch, where we have an attribute on a
builtin module (ie. module == NULL).

Subject: module: add /sys/module/<name>/uevent files

Userspace wants to manage module parameters with udev rules.
This currently only works for loaded modules, but not for
built-in ones.

To allow access to the built-in modules we need to
re-trigger all module load events that happened before any
userspace was running. We already do the same thing for all
devices, subsystems(buses) and drivers.

This adds the currently missing /sys/module/<name>/uevent files
to all module entries.
