re-add the perm check (we unified the module param and sysfs checks, but
the module ones were stronger so we weakened them temporarily).
Param parsing gets documented, and also "--" now forces args to be
handed to init (and ignored by the kernel).
Module NX/RO protections get tightened: we now set them before calling
parse_args().
Cheers,
Rusty.
