Subject: [PATCH] modules: elide param_lock if !CONFIG_SYSFS

Only include the built-in and per-module param_lock, and corresponding
lock/unlock functions, if sysfs is enabled.  If there is no sysfs there
is no need for locking kernel params.

This fixes a build break when CONFIG_SYSFS is not enabled, introduced
by commit b51d23e.
