Maybe we want to make @config just a boolean initializer?
e.g. something like

#define module_param_config_on_off(name, var, perm, on_off) 		\
	static bool var = on_off;					\
	module_param_named(name, var, bool, perm);

so that the caller does IS_ENABLED() or whatever that's necessary?  It
just seems a bit too restricted.

Thanks.
