[PATCH] powerpc: fix compile fail in hugetlb cmdline parsing

[Paul Gortmaker]

Commit 9fb48c744ba6a4bf58b666f4e6fdac3008ea1bd4

    "params: add 3rd arg to option handler callback signature"

added an extra arg to the function, but didn't catch all the use
cases needing it, causing this compile fail in mpc85xx_defconfig:

 arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c:316:4: error: passing argument 7 of
 'parse_args' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror]

 include/linux/moduleparam.h:317:12: note: expected
	 'int (*)(char *, char *, const char *)' but argument is of type
	 'int (*)(char *, char *)'

This function has no need to printk out the "doing" value, so
just add the arg as an "unused".

This is for -next right ? IE. I don't seem to have the faulty commit
in my tree so I can't carry the fix for now.... or am I missing
something ?

Cheers,
Ben.

This patch has been added to the driver-core tree which contains the
faulty commit ...
