* [PATCH 10/15] module_param: make bool parameters really bool (core code)

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int.  In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.  For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

For the rcutorture component:

Acked-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Tested-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Given that this portion of the patch is self-sufficient, I have queued
the rcutorture portion of this patch with your signed-off-by, which I
can push for either 3.3 or 3.4 (default is most likely 3.4).  Of course,
if you would prefer some other approach, please let me know.

							Thanx, Paul

Nope, more than happy.  Have removed it from my patch.

Cheers,
Rusty.
