If the driver is not compiled as a module, setting those variables won't
work anyway.  Or am I missing something?

You can, however, pass them on Linux command line (with some prefix
which I can never remember).

If you want to configure things at run-time without having to compile
stuff as modules, you need to wait for the configfs based gadgets.
