[patch] USB: kill bogus file in /sys/module/nousb/parameters

When USB is builtin, a file with a zero-length name is getting created in
/sys/module/nousb/parameters and it's causing problems for programs that
scan the filesystem. Since the file can't be read, statted, or anything,
don't create it at all.
