core_param() for genuinely core kernel parameters
There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're
cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys. Yet
it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that
inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename).
So, introduce a "core_param". The parameter gets no prefix, but
appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg). I
thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than
"kernel". And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die
a horrible death.
