Subject: [PATCH 5/6] dccp: Toggle debug output without module unloading

This sets the sysfs permissions so that root can toggle the `debug'
parameter available for nearly every DCCP module. This is useful
since there are various module inter-dependencies. The debug flag
can now be toggled at runtime using

  echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp/parameters/dccp_debug
  echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_ccid2/parameters/ccid2_debug
  echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_ccid3/parameters/ccid3_debug
  echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_tfrc_lib/parameters/tfrc_debug

The last is not very useful yet, since no code at the moment calls
the tfrc_debug() macro.
