Message-ID <[email protected]>
Add macros that define a struct kernel_param_ops initializer through a
macro so the underlying field layout can evolve without touching every
call site. Three variants cover the three cases:

 DEFINE_KERNEL_PARAM_OPS(name, set, get) // basic
 DEFINE_KERNEL_PARAM_OPS_NOARG(name, set, get) // set KERNEL_PARAM_OPS_FL_NOARG
 DEFINE_KERNEL_PARAM_OPS_FREE(name, set, get, free) // also set .free

Callers prefix their own visibility qualifiers, e.g.:

  static DEFINE_KERNEL_PARAM_OPS(my_ops, my_set, my_get);

Also update module_param_call() and STANDARD_PARAM_DEF() to use
DEFINE_KERNEL_PARAM_OPS internally so the generated ops table will go
through the same macro as everything else.

Subsequent commits convert all open-coded struct kernel_param_ops
definitions to use these macros, in preparation for migrating to a
seq_buf .get API.
