Subject: [PATCH] kernel/params.c: fix the module name length in
param_sysfs_builtin
the original code use KOBJ_NAME_LEN for built-in module name length,
that's defined to 20 in linux/kobject.h, but this is not enough appearntly,
many module names are longer than this;
#define KOBJ_NAME_LEN 20
another macro is MODULE_NAME_LEN defined in linux/module.h, I think this is
enough for module names:
#define MODULE_NAME_LEN (64 - sizeof(unsigned long))
