  params: fix charp corruption on allocation failure (2026-08-06 16:44:48 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Modules changes for 7.3-rc1

- Remove unnecessary module::args. Nowadays, no parameter-handling code
  points into the module::args buffer. The last user of module::args in
  xtensa/simdisk is updated and the data is then removed.

- Add Rust support for boolean parameters. This will initially be used by
  the Rust null block driver.

- Fix clearing the current charp parameter value when setting a new one
  fails due to an allocation failure.

- Improve the debugging code for kmod (request_module()) duplicates. Fix
  a potential use-after-free when waiting on a duplicate request and make
  several general improvements to the code.

- Fix the symbol size returned when looking up a data symbol through
  kallsyms.

- The remaining changes are smaller fixes and cleanups.
