[PATCH][resend] Update e1000 to use module_param()

Also in:
lkml
(resending because this seems to have been lost; e1000 still has mixed
MODULE_PARM and module_param use)
The change to e1000_main.c in
ChangeSet@1.1722.32.6, 2004-05-27 13:44:06-04:00, ganesh.venkatesan@intel.com
[PATCH] e1000 7/7: Support for ethtool msglevel based error
added module_param(debug, ...) to e1000_main.c. Since e1000_param.c
still uses MODULE_PARM(), this means that one gets
e1000: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones
when e1000 is loaded, so the debug parameter cannot even be set.
The patch below fixes this by updating e1000_param.c to use
module_param() as well. Since module_param might make the parameters
visible in sysfs, I removed the __devinitdata notation from the
parameter arrays as well, just to be safe.
Thanks,
Roland
