no need to init to 0.

Does it harm?

It adds space to the binary file in some cases and it is kernel
convention not to init statics to NULL or 0 since that is already
guaranteed for them.

+module_param(blink, bool, S_IRUGO);
+MODULE_PARM_DESC(blink, "Enable blinking (without that, the module does nothing)\n");
unneeded "\n"

Fixed. Please use the following patch.
