If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Petr Pavlu [ Upstream commit bdc877ba6b7ff1b6d2ebeff11e63da4a50a54854 ] The moduleparam code allows modules to provide their own definition of MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX, instead of using the default KBUILD_MODNAME ".". Commit 730b69d22525 ("module: check kernel param length at compile time, not runtime") added a check to ensure the prefix doesn't exceed MODULE_NAME_LEN, as this is what param_sysfs_builtin() expects. Later, commit 58f86cc89c33 ("VERIFY_OCTAL_PERMISSIONS: stricter checking for sysfs perms.") removed this check, but there is no indication this was intentional. Since the check is still useful for param_sysfs_builtin() to function properly, reintroduce it in __module_param_call(), but in a modernized form using static_assert(). While here, clean up the __module_param_call() comments. In particular, remove the comment "Default value instead of permissions?", which comes from commit 9774a1f54f17 ("[PATCH] Compile-time check re world-writeable module params"). This comment was related to the test variable __param_perm_check_##name, which was removed in the previously mentioned commit 58f86cc89c33. Fixes: 58f86cc89c33 ("VERIFY_OCTAL_PERMISSIONS: stricter checking for sysfs perms.")
