And for the time being use the module param, makes sense?
This talk about making an alternative, clean, mechanism later
is non-sense.  Because you'll never be able to get rid of this
module param once you add it.

Module parameters stink because every driver is going to provide the
knob differently, with a different name, and different semantics.

This creates a terrible user experience, and I will not allow it.
