I'm pretty impressed that it broke, actually. "debug" is a weird
pseudo-variable that's really another global variable underneath,
corkscrew_debug... but MODULE_PARM() uses "debug". Sigh.
Further encouragement for me to convert net drivers over to Rusty's new
module parameter stuff, I suppose. His stuff is at least type-checked,
and would have caught this problem -- a big advantage over the 2.4.x
MODULE_PARM() stuff.

Fixed. Linus, please apply.
