[2.6 patch] kernel/params.c: fix sysfs access with CONFIG_MODULES=n

From: Adrian Bunk

From: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

All the work was done to setup the file and maintain the file handles but
the access functions were zeroed out due to the #ifdef. Removing the
#ifdef allows full access to all the parameters when CONFIG_MODULES=n.

akpm: put it back again, but use CONFIG_SYSFS instead.

This patch is
fix-sysfs-access-to-module-parameters-with-config_modules\=n.patch
in -mm.

This patch is simple enough for getting it into 2.6.15 and I'm inclined
to even submit it for -stable.
