Maximum HW gain is what we probably should have been setting from the beginning. The module parameter stuff was in case we need to debug it. My thought is if we find some reported problems with the series we ask users to try the module parameters. If we're finding that certain parameters make sense for different systems then we tear out the module parameter and instead export a control and set policy from ucm. If nothing is reported, we can probably drop the parameters at some time in the future.
