You should remove "not" for option value 1 and use the word failure for option
value 2.
MODULE_PARM_DESC(primary_reselect, "Reselect primary slave "
"once it comes up; "
"0 for always (default), "
"1 for only if speed of primary is "
"better, "
"2 for only on active slave "
"failure");
Apart from this small detail, this sounds good for me.
