  module: set nx before marking module MODULE_STATE_COMING. (2014-05-14 10:55:47 +0930)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Most of this is cleaning up various driver sysfs permissions so we can
re-add the perm check (we unified the module param and sysfs checks, but
the module ones were stronger so we weakened them temporarily).

Param parsing gets documented, and also "--" now forces args to be
handed to init (and ignored by the kernel).

Module NX/RO protections get tightened: we now set them before calling
parse_args().

Cheers,
Rusty.
