Commit "driver core: platform: set mod_name in driver registration" will
set struct device_driver's mod_name member for platform driver
registration. For a driver to be registered with its mod_name set,
module_kset needs to be initialized, which currently happens in a
subsys_initcall in param_sysfs_init(). The tegra cbb drivers register
themselves before module_kset init, in a core_initcall. This works
currently because lookup_or_create_module_kobject(), which dereferences
module_kset via kset_find_obj(), is not called if mod_name is not set,
which is the case now.
So in preparation for the commit "driver core: platform: set mod_name in
driver registration", move module_kset init to pure_initcall level,
ensuring it happens before tegra cbb driver registration.

* Use the preferred `unsigned int` over plain `unsigned` for the `num`
parameter.
* Synchronize the parameter names in moduleparam.h with the ones used by

When setting a charp module parameter, the param_set_charp() function
allocates memory to store a copy of the input value. Later, when the module
is potentially unloaded, the destroy_params() function is called to free
this allocated memory.
However, destroy_params() is available only when CONFIG_SYSFS=y, otherwise
only a dummy variant is present. In the unlikely case that the kernel is
configured with CONFIG_MODULES=y and CONFIG_SYSFS=n, this results in
a memory leak of charp values when a module is unloaded.
Fix this issue by making destroy_params() always available when
CONFIG_MODULES=y. Rename the function to module_destroy_params() to clarify
that it is intended for use by the module loader.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Remove the custom __modinit macro from kernel/params.c and instead use the
common __init_or_module macro from include/linux/module.h. Both provide the
same functionality.

In the unlikely event of the allocation failing, it is better to let
the machine boot with a not fully populated sysfs than to kill it with
this BUG_ON(). All callers are already prepared for
lookup_or_create_module_kobject() returning NULL.
This is also preparation for calling this function from non __init
code, where using BUG_ON for allocation failure handling is not
acceptable.
Since we are here, also start using IS_ENABLED instead of #ifdef
construct.

Add the __counted_by compiler attribute to the flexible array member
attrs to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.
Increment num before adding a new param_attribute to the attrs array and
adjust the array index accordingly. Increment num immediately after the
first reallocation such that the reallocation for the NULL terminator
only needs to add 1 (instead of 2) to mk->mp->num.
Use struct_size() instead of manually calculating the size for the
reallocation.
Use krealloc_array() for the additional NULL terminator.

strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool().
However, the latter is more used within the kernel.
In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to
the other function name.
While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>)
