From 02608bef8f774c058779546926889a2f2717a499 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Young Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 10:33:14 +0800 Subject: module: add kernel param to force disable module load Sometimes we need to test a kernel of same version with code or config option changes. We already have sysctl to disable module load, but add a kernel parameter will be more convenient. Since modules_disabled is int, so here use bint type in core_param.

In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. This eliminates that code (though leaves the flags field in the struct, for impending use).

We rename the now-unused "flags" field of struct kernel_param as the level. It's signed, for when we use this for early params as well, in future. Linker macro collating init calls had to be modified in order to add additional symbols between levels that are later used by the init code to split the calls into blocks.
