Subject: Remove superfluous definition of __setup_null_param() macro and broken (for MODULE) __setup_param()
From: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Remove superfluous definition of __setup_null_param() macro, as nobody uses
it anymore.
Also kill the #ifdef-MODULE-case (empty) definition for __setup_param. It
is only required for the !MODULE case, as __setup() is empty for the MODULE
case already. Also, no user outside init.h must use __setup_null_param
directly anyway (and nobody does), so it's not something whose empty
definition we necessarily need to make available to rest of the kernel.
Moreover, this MODULE case of __setup_param has been broken for more than
two years now -- as far back as git history takes us. Let's get rid of it.
