So this patch may be > missing something. I thought it could be covered by nf_conntrack_helper_register, it would return error when modparam specifies one invalid max_expected. So I didn't check the modparam before. Now I think you are right. It is clear to report one error by checking the modparam. I would send the v2 patch. There is only one case. This is the nf_conntrack_irc.c.
