So my only option is to create a new module_param in the usb-storage
usb.c driver? Even if I #ifdef it it seems like little messy of a
solution, are there any other suggestions?

WRT to the other solution you suggested against (file-system based), I
know this is likely a dumb question, but is there not a way for
drivers to read user space controlled settings (something analogous to
the Windows registry)?

Thanks,
