85 * for world-readable, 0644 for root-writable, etc. Note that if it
86 * is writable, you may need to use kparam_block_sysfs_write() around
87 * accesses (esp. charp, which can be kfreed when it changes).
89 * The @type is simply pasted to refer to a param_ops_##type and a
90 * param_check_##type: for convenience many standard types are provided but
91 * you can create your own by defining those variables.
